The historica plugin enables users to dynamically extract and visualize dates and times from their notes to create customizable timelines. By simply adding a historica block, the plugin identifies date or time references in the current note and organizes them into an interactive timeline. Users can modify and enhance timelines through context menus, including rich text editing and image embedding. Advanced customization options and auto-save functionality are available for persistent data management. The plugin supports English text analysis and provides detailed visual and interactive tools to refine timelines.
