Description

Deploying career timelines for each artist on a music agency website.
GitHub for project available here.

Main feedback from is that the vertical sizing/spacing of the timeline bar and event cards are too large in the X axis.
Furthermore, one of our artists asked if it was possible to replace the cards with a small icon instead.

Would love to contribute to this amazing tool.

Research direction

Start in the TimelineJS3 repository and search for the tl-timemarker-content-container entry point that renders timeline event cards. Reproduce the sizing and spacing issue from the linked music agency example, then determine how custom icons could replace the cards and verify the result in the timeline presentation.
