Description

to build a Timeline with suggestions about books for each day

### Describe the problem that you'd like solved

I want to put on the timeline short lists of books (not more than 5 books) for each day.

### Proposal & Constraints

I know that there's a free tool Histropedia js, can it be used?

The covers of books have to appear, perhaps a short phrase to explain the list

### Additional context

### Stakeholders

Research direction

Begin with the existing timeline feature and evaluate whether the proposed Histropedia JS tool fits. The issue names no files, tests, or entry points, so first locate the relevant timeline implementation and clarify the book-cover and description requirements. Done means a daily timeline can show lists of up to five books with covers and an optional explanatory phrase.
