Countdown Timer in django

An interactive countdown web app built with Django and JavaScript. It features a dynamic background of animated stars rendered on an HTML5 canvas that responds to mouse and touch movement, while a styled countdown timer and input form are stacked neatly on the page. The design combines responsive layout techniques with real‑time animation, creating a visually engaging and functional experience.
