    <li class="align-items-center flex-column d-flex justify-content-center">
        <span class="days">00</span>
        Days
    </li>
    <li class="align-items-center flex-column d-flex justify-content-center">
        <span class="hours">00</span>
        Hours
    </li>
    <li class="align-items-center flex-column d-flex justify-content-center">
        <span class="minutes">00</span>
        Mins
    </li>
    <li class="align-items-center flex-column d-flex justify-content-center">
        <span class="seconds">00</span>
        Secs
    </li>
</ul>

CSS Code :

.countdown {
    list-style-type: none;
    padding-left: 0;
    margin: {
        top: 40px;
        bottom: 0;
    };
    li {
        width: 120px;
        height: 120px;
        border-radius: 5px;
        color: var(--whiteColor);
        background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, .03);
        font: {
            size: var(--fontSize);
            weight: 500;
        };
        margin: {
            left: 10px;
            right: 10px;
        };
        span {
            font: {
                size: 35px;
                weight: 700;
            };
        }
        &:first-child {
            margin-left: 0;
        }
        &:last-child {
            margin-right: 0;
        }
    }
}

JS Code :

// Countdown
$('.countdown').downCount({
    date: '08/27/2025 12:00:00',
    offset: -5
}, function () {
    alert('WOOT WOOT, done!');
});
