PKL Countdown

PKL Countdown project preview.

PKL Countdown is a small web project built during my SMK internship period. The idea was simple: show how much time was left before the PKL period ended.

Overview

The project was built as a countdown timer using Next.js and Tailwind CSS. It was not intended to be a complex application, but it became a useful exercise in turning a real daily context into a working web page.

Problem

During PKL, we wanted a simple way to track the remaining internship period. Instead of only checking dates manually, the project turned that into a small website that could calculate and display the remaining time.

Role

I built the project as a personal learning exercise during school. The work focused on implementing the countdown logic, designing the page, and practicing a modern frontend stack.

Stack

  • Next.js
  • TypeScript
  • Tailwind CSS

Scope

  • Built a countdown timer for the PKL period.
  • Created a simple responsive interface.
  • Practiced Next.js routing and component structure.
  • Used Tailwind CSS for styling.
  • Connected a real-life school context with a small web implementation.

Outcome

The result is a simple but personal project from my SMK period. It helped me practice frontend development while building something tied directly to the internship experience.
