I am working hard on a book club over on /c/theory trying to help comrades read through Das Kapital volumes 1-3

It seems daunting, but is actually a finite slog that will definitely be accomplished provided you keep putting on foot in front of another.

So I'm trying to keep comrades motivated in any way possible. I was thinking some visual progress indicator like the mock-up attached would help motivate and stimulate comrades. Can anyone make such a thing for me?

        Hah, yeah you're right, I didn't pay attention to the sub. I do graphics (3d modeling and videos) for a living so I could probably help - do you just need the graphic or do you need someone to code it in as well?

        Just need to understand the environment this is set up in to see if I can actually help you here

          Thank you.

          It would update every week (coz it's a progress bar) so either I'd have to be able to do that myself in GIMP or by changing a parameter somewhere.

            If the progress % can go up at the same interval (because everyone has the same amount of goals, 3 books) then I can make you 3 different bars to display (one for each interval)

            Otherwise if you want it animated and to "slide" from 0% - X% when someone clicks done, then some coding will be involved and id need backend access to your platform.

            You can also do it with CSS if it's in a web browser, here's a very easy example you can copy/paste:

            https://www.w3schools.com/w3css/w3css_progressbar.asp

            This will give you a progress bar that's animated and you don't even have to make the graphic

              W3 schools has a JavaScript version of this progress bar as well, but let me know which path you think is best here
