Implement custom Timeline component

Opened this issue · 1 comments

react-timeline has been super-useful in getting me this far, but I keep finding myself reaching for designs that I can't implement with it. Through the experience of browsing their code, I've got a pretty good idea of how I'd build this, but under my constraints.

Namely, that this is a general-purpose time that expects each even to have a date. I'm (mis)using the date prop as an image. Feels icky, and I can't control how some things render. See Orta's feedback in #396 for more examples.

Also, the two 5-year posts now have divergent code paths 😒 Would be better to get them together. 2024 is around the corner 😅
