Installation

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @bundui/countdown

Requires @bundui in the registries of your components.json (shadcn adds official directory namespaces automatically).

Usage

usage.tsx
import { Countdown } from "@/components/countdown/countdown";export function Example() {  return <Countdown value={9} padStart />;}
  • Display hours, minutes, and seconds in a live countdown timer.
  • Show changing numeric values such as prices, scores, counters, or progress values with animated digit transitions.
  • Use leading-zero padding for consistent time-unit formatting such as 09:04:07.
  • Render decimal values with a locale- or product-specific separator.

Examples

Hours, minutes, and seconds

Compose three padded Countdown instances with separators for a conventional timer display.

hours,-minutes,-and-seconds.tsx
import { Countdown } from "@/components/countdown/countdown";export function TimeDisplay() {  return (    <div className="flex items-center gap-0.5 text-xl font-semibold">      <Countdown value={9} padStart />      <span className="text-zinc-500">:</span>      <Countdown value={4} padStart />      <span className="text-zinc-500">:</span>      <Countdown value={7} padStart />    </div>  );}

Decimal value

Render a changing decimal value with a custom comma separator.

decimal-value.tsx
import { Countdown } from "@/components/countdown/countdown";export function DecimalDisplay() {  return <Countdown value={12.5} decimalSeparator="," />;}

Negative value

Render a negative number; the minus sign is output before the animated digits.

negative-value.tsx
import { Countdown } from "@/components/countdown/countdown";export function NegativeDisplay() {  return <Countdown value={-42} />;}

API reference

PropTypeDefaultDescription
valuenumber—The numeric value to display. Required.
padStartbooleanfalseWhen true and the integer portion is less than 10, prefixes it with one zero.
decimalSeparatorstring"."The string rendered between the integer and decimal portions.

Accessibility

  • The component does not add ARIA attributes, labels, or live-region behavior; provide an accessible label or surrounding context when the value is meaningful to assistive technology.
  • For a timer that updates over time, place the display in an appropriately configured live region only if announcing every update will not be disruptive; consider announcing milestone changes instead.
  • Use visible text or an accessible name to identify the unit and purpose, such as a surrounding label indicating that the three values represent hours, minutes, and seconds.
  • The animated digits inherit surrounding styles, so verify sufficient color contrast and readable sizing in the consuming layout.
