What a copy needs to do

  • A form for end date, time and time zone
  • Colors and size for the digits
  • An image link that shows the time left when the email opens
  • A copy-ready HTML snippet for any email tool
  • A set message once the timer reaches zero
  • No watermark at any number of views

How to build it yourself

  1. A Next.js route handler answers each image request with freshly built bytes.3
  2. The handler reads the end time and colors from the request URL's query string.3
  3. The @napi-rs/canvas package draws days, hours, minutes and seconds on each frame.4
  4. The gifenc library encodes 60 frames, one per second, into an animated GIF.5
  5. A no-store Cache-Control header tells caches to fetch a fresh image each time.6
  6. The handler runs as a Vercel Function, so no server stays running between opens.7

What a copy leaves out

  • Per-recipient start-on-open timers
  • Open counts and analytics
  • Personalized images, polls and weather widgets
  • Some email apps cache images, so the time shown can lag
