I recently got a request for something completely unnecessary and mildly ridiculous.
And of course, I had to say yes.
Instead of a traditional Christmas countdown, this one is a “Christmas is loading…” page — a faux North Pole control panel that shows a progress bar slowly filling throughout the year, complete with status logs from the elves.
It updates automatically, creeps toward 100%, and officially completes on Christmas Day. No signup. No app. Just pure seasonal nonsense.
You can watch it load here:
https://christmasloading.com/
It’s lightweight, it’s fun, and it makes me smile every time I open it.
