    The creator of this (Chee Aun) is quite prolific and creative with their work (https://cheeaun.com/projects/).

    They created https://cheeaun.life, a timeline of their life, more than 10 years ago (which looks to be kept up to date), which was my inspiration for markwhen (https://markwhen.com).

    I'm glad you're here to see it!

    So cheeaun here posted his life timeline project[0] 9 years ago (!) to hacker news[1] and I always thought it was pretty neat. I made a tool to make timelines like that and it has since evolved into markwhen.
