Frequently asked questions

How do I change the colour?

With the CSS variables --yt-ptr-color (circle) and --yt-count-bg (chip), red #e62e2e by default.

How do I start the countdown?

ytCountIn brings the chip in, then ytCountdown(tl, target, at, from) counts from "from" down to 0 with one pulse per second.
