External Libraries

• Semantic UI: My new favorite UI component library with awesome form validation. I like it better than Bootstrap or Foundation.
• pickadate.js: What a cool jQuery library for date and time picker. Easy to use and nicely designed.
• Odometer: I used this JavaScript and CSS library to smoothly transition the countdown numbers with ease. Thanks HubSpot!
• CodesArc Programming Tutorials: I referenced this Javascript Countdown For Remaining Time tutorial for the countdown feature. I added some logic to prevent the timer from counting down pass 0 and a modal to congratulate the user when the time is up.
• SVG Icons FTW
