Easily visualize series of events just by typing them out. Author markdown-like documents to see a cascading timeline or map; tag and filter them to get a focused view. Supports links, images, locations, date ranges, sorting, tagging, and more.
Hey PH, I've been working on markwhen as a way to easily create, view, and edit timelines based on a simple markdown-like text file. I even used it successfully a few weeks ago for coordinating and sharing a timeline of events surrounding my wedding!
It supports locations, images, links, multiple pages, dark mode, ISO dates, casual dates (like June 4, 2021, or Dec 12 9am), and more.
I hope you find it useful, if you have comments or feedback I'd be happy to hear it. Also feel free to open issues on github!
@koch This is absolutely genius. Thank you so much for creating this. Timeline and gantt tools are so clunky and cumbersome (and expensive for such terrible software). I would definitely pay for this! Thank you thank you thank you!
@koch Just made a killer timetable!
Two questions.
1) what is the format for inserting the location so it appears on the map?
2) is it possible to change the color of all of the items in a section or group without tagging each individual line?
Killer killer killer product.
@paulgeller I’m so glad you like it!
1) for others wondering, the syntax is (Paris, France)[map] or (Glasgow)[location]
2) Unfortunately no, you’d have to individually tag them. I could make it so that if it’s in a tagged group or tagged section then it gets that section’s color
This has tickled the part of my brain that likes data. I'm going to be making maps all day!

Wow this is ridiculously cool. There are so many use cases. I've tried to achieve similar effects with mermaid and always given up but this is a game changer. I'll likely use this in my clinical practice too.
