Free Salesforce release countdown widget
Show the current Salesforce release, the next sandbox preview or production weekend and a live day countdown on your own site. One script tag, no sign-up, no cookies, no tracking: the schedule is inlined in the script, so it makes a single request and never phones home.
Live preview
Embed code
Paste this where the widget should appear (a sidebar, a footer, a resources page):
<script src="https://sfupdates.com/widget.js" async></script>Light theme for white pages:
<script src="https://sfupdates.com/widget.js" data-theme="light" async></script>Compact mode (current release and next milestone only):
<script src="https://sfupdates.com/widget.js" data-theme="light" data-compact="true" async></script>What it shows
- Current release and its status (rolling out, planned)
- Next milestone with a day countdown: release notes, sandbox preview or production weekend
- The three milestones after that, with dates marked as estimated until Salesforce confirms them
- A small credit line linking to the release dates page and the current release notes
How it stays accurate
The dates come from the same schedule that powers sfupdates.com/release-dates. Confirmed dates are marked as such; planned ones carry an est. label based on the usual Salesforce cadence and are replaced as soon as Salesforce publishes official dates. Every site rebuild regenerates the script, so embedders never need to update anything.
Raw data is available as JSON at /widget/data.json if you prefer to build your own view.
Terms
Free for any website, including commercial ones. Keep the credit line intact; that is the only ask. Width adapts to its container up to 360px. Questions or requests: info@sfupdates.com.
