Build a timeline section for my website. Match my existing design system, colors, and fonts.

STRUCTURE
- A section heading, then a vertical timeline: the line on the left with all content to the right of it, on every screen size.
- The timeline shows 4 milestones from the config array.
- Each entry: a dot on the line, the date label, a bold title, and one or two lines of text.

DATA AND HONESTY
- Milestones live in one config array (date, title, text), in chronological order: real dates and real events only, clearly marked TODO placeholders until I fill them. Never pad the timeline with invented milestones. Empty array = the section does not render.

QUALITY
- Semantic markup: an ol (it is a sequence), each entry an li; dates in time elements with a machine-readable datetime attribute.
- The line and dots are pure CSS, no images; the accent dot color comes from my brand accent.
- Any reveal-on-scroll animation honors prefers-reduced-motion (content visible without JS in any case).
- WCAG AA contrast; fully responsive: on mobile every layout falls back to a single left-aligned line with content to the right, no horizontal overflow.

QUESTIONS
- Before you build, find or ask for: my real milestones (date, title, one or two lines each). Check my project and site first; whatever you cannot find there, ask me for. Never invent these or ship placeholders.
- If anything else about my brand or content is unclear, ask me before inventing.

What it does

The timeline section tells your history or your roadmap as a line of real milestones: a dot, a date, a title, a line of text, repeating down the page. Stories stick better than paragraphs. Founded, first customer, big move, next launch: dots people actually read.

Real dates and real events only; padding the timeline with invented milestones is banned.
Milestones render in the order you list them, newest additions and all.
Each date is written for humans and machines both, so search engines read your history too.
Any reveal-as-you-scroll animation stays gentle and switches off for less-motion visitors.
Everything stays visible even if scripts fail; the story never depends on JavaScript.
The line and dots are pure styling in your brand's accent, no images to break.

How it works

1Slide the milestone count, 3 to 6.
2Pick the layout, everything on one side, or alternating left and right on desktop.
3Copy the prompt, the timeline's instructions for your AI, into whichever AI you use.
4Write your real milestones, date, title, and a line or two each, in the order they actually happened.
5Scroll it on your phone: one tidy line down the left, content to the right, nothing spilling off screen.
6Check the order twice: milestones render exactly as listed, so a date out of sequence is yours to fix, not the code's.

What you can customize

How many milestones: three hits the highlights; six suits a genuinely storied history with more chapters worth telling.
Layout: single side reads fastest; alternating feels grander for big anniversary pages, folding back to one line on phones.
Dots, dates, and colors adapt to your site automatically, because your AI builds the timeline right inside your own design.
