🧠 ML Conference Countdown (Übersicht Widget)

A minimal Übersicht widget that shows live countdowns to submission deadlines for top machine learning conferences:

• ICLR
• ICML
• NeurIPS

It uses official timezones and updates once a week via data from CCF Deadlines.

✨ Features

• ⏱ Real-time countdown, updated every second
• 🌐 Timezone-aware (e.g., UTC−8 for NeurIPS)
• 📅 Weekly auto-refresh via cached JSON
• 🪶 Clean display with year tag like ICML’25
• 🔁 Easily swappable for other conferences

---

🔄 Customize Your Conferences

You can replace the default conferences (ICLR, ICML, NeurIPS) with others like:

• ACL
• CVPR
• EMNLP
• COLT
• Any other from the full list on CCF Deadlines

🛠 How to change:

1. Open ml_fetch.sh
2. Find this line:

   CONFS=("iclr" "icml" "nips")

3. Replace or add the conference names inside the select() filter with your preferred ones (e.g., "acl", "cvpr").
4. Save the file, delete the cached data file ml_data.json and refresh the widget.
