Hi Christian, thanks for the feedback!
We see the countdown timer as a fairly common need, especially for e-commerce campaigns. If a partner builds it, it risks fragmentation with different quality levels, lack of updates, or compatibility issues over time.
By providing a simple, built-in version, we ensure a consistent experience for all users without relying on custom solutions.
Happy to discuss more if needed!
Why is this in the Page Editing (beta) topic?
Personally a block with this functionality should be made by a partner. Maybe Litium can make this block, but i don't see the general use case for this for other partners.
