Historica

Obsidian plugin that automatically turns note prose into an interactive timeline.

Pluginfreeglobal

Historica is an Obsidian plugin that automatically finds every date mentioned in a note's prose and renders an interactive, editable timeline inside a code block, with no manual entry required. It parses several languages, exports to PNG, PDF, and other formats, and saves timelines as plain Markdown so they stay diffable and vault-portable, aimed at Obsidian users writing narrative, research, or historical notes who want dates visualized automatically.
