## What it is
FlipClock.js is a themeable, type-safe TypeScript library for rendering clocks, timers, counters, and flipboards in web applications. It is framework-agnostic, working with React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, Solid, or vanilla JavaScript, with full control over markup, styling, and behavior.

## Use cases
- add a flip-style countdown clock to a website
- display an animated timer widget in the browser
- show an elapsed time or stopwatch counter on a web page
- build a scoreboard-style flipboard display in JavaScript
- embed a themeable clock widget in a React or Vue app
- create a production-ready countdown for a landing page

## When to choose
- you need polished, animated flip-clock, timer, or counter displays in any web frontend
- you want framework-agnostic rendering with full control over markup, styling, and behavior
- type safety, unit test coverage, and production readiness are important to your project

## When to avoid
- you need backend time scheduling or headless time logic rather than a visual display widget
- you need canvas/WebGL-grade animation or native mobile/native desktop clock components
- your environment has no DOM (pure server-side or non-browser runtime) since rendering is DOM-based

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: ui-components, animation
- domain: web-development, frontend
- platform: browser
- tags: flip-clock, clock, timer, countdown, counter, flipboard, themeable, framework-agnostic, typescript, widgets
