🎯 Purpose

Use the Counter widget to display numeric statistics, milestone figures, or key data points in an engaging animated form—ideal for showcasing achievements, business stats, or campaign metrics.


🛠️ Content & Setup

  1. Number & Prefix/Suffix

    • Define the numeric goal (e.g., “5000”) along with optional text before (e.g., “$”) or after (e.g., “+”) the number.

  2. Duration (Animation Time)

    • Set how long, in seconds or milliseconds, the number animation runs as the user scrolls into view.

  3. Start Value

    • Optionally choose where the animation begins (e.g., start from 0 or another number).


🎨 Style & Typography

  • Number & Text Look

    • Customize font style, size, color, weight, spacing, and decoration for both the numeric counter and its prefix/suffix.

  • Alignment & Placement

    • Choose whether the counter content is aligned left, center, or right.

  • Colors

    • Set different text colors for normal and hover states to add interactivity.


⚙️ Advanced Settings

  • Responsive Controls

    • Adjust typography, number size, and spacing for desktop, tablet, and mobile for consistent readability.

  • Container & Spacing

    • Control margin, padding, and positioning to integrate the counter smoothly into your layout.

  • Visual Effects

    • Add entrance animations or scroll-triggered motion to enhance viewing impact.

    • Use custom HTML attributes, CSS classes, and z-index for further styling or integration.


✅ Best Practices

  • Use clear, meaningful numbers that represent genuine milestones or data.

  • Pick animation durations that balance impact with readability (typically 1–3 seconds).

  • Choose typography and colors that match your brand’s style guidelines.

  • Ensure responsive readability—large enough to read but not overwhelming on mobile.

  • Consider pairing other widgets (like icons or headlines) to give context to the numbers.


The Counter widget is a dynamic and visually compelling way to display key statistics or progress figures—complete with styling, animation, and responsive control for seamless integration.
