How to create a timeline in Markdown?

Markdown itself does not have support for creating timelines. However, there are extensions and tools available that can help you create timelines in Markdown. One option is to use a JavaScript library like TimelineJS or Vis.js, and embed the timeline in your Markdown document using an HTML <iframe> tag. Here’s an example:

<iframe src="https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/timeline3/latest/embed/index.html?source=1V3qWm9X7e-5mmsi5P5ibBPh2_QyjlR4uqrL01yVxJ3E&font=Default&lang=en&initial_zoom=2&height=650" width="100%" height="650" frameborder="0"></iframe>

This code will embed a timeline created with TimelineJS into your Markdown document. You will need to modify the src attribute to point to your own timeline data. Alternatively, you can use a Markdown extension like mermaid or markdown-timelines to add timeline functionality directly to your Markdown documents.

Keep in mind that not all Markdown rendering engines support HTML tags or extensions, so you may need to test your document in different environments to make sure that the timeline displays correctly.
