[Timeline]

Tell your story, process, or roadmap as a clear timeline that reads well on desktop and phone.

[ Layout: Vertical, line left ] [ Markers: Dots ] [ Heading tag: H3 ]

Example 02

Numbered steps on a left line

A process reads top to bottom with each step on its own dot. Changing the accent color updates the line, markers, and labels together.

Our story

  1. 2014
    Founded in Lisbon
    Three people, one rented room in Alfama, and a first client who paid in advance.
  2. 2017
    First international client
    A logistics firm in Rotterdam signed on, and our working hours shifted for good.
  3. 2021
    100 team members
    Two offices, four continents of clients, and still one shared Friday lunch.
  4. 2025
    Opened Berlin office
    A second studio for the engineering team, 2,300 km from where we started.

Example 03

The center line, on a phone

Alternating cards need width that a phone does not have. On small screens the center layout moves the line to the left and stacks every card on one side, with no extra setup.

[ Layout: Vertical, center ] [ Small screens: single left line ]

[ Motion that steps aside ]

Milestones can fade or slide in one after another as the visitor scrolls, like the last card in the hero. For anyone whose device asks for reduced motion, the reveal is skipped and every item is simply shown.

Company history and “Our story”

Lay out the years your business grew with milestones alternating either side of a center line. It turns an About page from a wall of text into something people scroll through.

  1. Phase 1
    Discovery
    Goals, audience, and a written brief
  2. Phase 2
    Design
    Wireframes, then two visual rounds
  3. Phase 3
    Build
    Development, content, and testing
  4. Phase 4
    Launch
    Go live and hand over the site

Project process and onboarding

Show clients what happens after they sign, phase by phase, with labels such as Discovery or Week 2. Setting expectations early saves a round of emails later.

Product roadmaps

Run quarters across the page as a horizontal timeline and mark each card with its status. Visitors swipe through what has shipped and what is coming next.
