Event Countdown App

This is a simple web-based application that allows users to view a countdown to various events. The app dynamically calculates the days remaining to the next occurrence of a set of predefined events (e.g., New Year's Day, Valentine's Day, Christmas). The event countdown adjusts based on the current date and always shows the next upcoming event.

Features

• Displays a list of events with a countdown to the next occurrence.
• Updates the countdown automatically to show the number of days left.
• If an event's date has already passed for the current year, it adjusts to the next year's event.
• Responsive design that works on both desktop and mobile devices.

• New Year's Day 🎉

How It Works

• The app defines a list of events with specific dates (e.g., 2024-01-01 for New Year's Day).
• It calculates the number of days remaining until each event using JavaScript, adjusting for events that have already passed in the current year.
• The events are displayed in a sorted order, with the nearest event at the top.
• Each event is displayed with an emoji and the number of days left until the event occurs.

Days Calculation Logic

• The app checks if the event date has passed for the current year. If it has, the app calculates the countdown for the same event in the following year.
• The days remaining are calculated and displayed dynamically.

Customisation

To add or modify events, you can update the events array in the script section of the index.html file. The array contains objects with the following properties:

• emoji: A string representing the emoji associated with the event.
• name: The name of the event.
• date: The date of the event in the format YYYY-MM-DD.

Example:

{ emoji: '🎉', name: 'New Year\'s Day', date: '2024-01-01' }
