Space year progress widget
A space year progress widget shows how much of the year has passed as a percentage and a bar. Deep navy skies, star dots and soft purple nebula tones. This page gives the exact colors, type settings and layers, with a preview drawn from the same values.

What a space year progress widget shows
A year-progress widget is a gentle nudge: one bar that fills from 1 January to 31 December. The same layout works for the day, the week or a personal goal.
It is calculated from the date, so it is free, offline and needs no permission. WidgetCraft includes a free Day progress component, and a formula can stretch it to the year.
How the space style shapes it
Space widgets use deep navy and violet with white text and tiny star dots. Circles become planets and orbits, which suits clocks, countdowns and step rings.
- Bars and rings: Use thin orbit rings and small filled circles as planets.
- Numbers: Center the number in starlight white.

Tips for space year progress widgets
- Use a gradient from navy to violet.
- Add a few small white circles as stars.
- Show both the percentage and the day count so the bar has context.
- Use a segmented bar if you want each step to feel like a milestone.
- For a goal of your own, connect the bar to a counter instead of the date.
- Do not use bright daytime colors.
- Do not overfill; space needs emptiness.
