Accessibility
If you repeat link text for more than one event, make sure that screen reader users can tell links apart: for example, by including specific event details in hidden text.
If your back-end system produces time information in 24-hour format, transform it to the correct 12-hour format for presentation in the timeline. Times in 24-hour format or with leading zeroes can be more difficult to read for users with dyslexia or dyscalculia.
Headers have been used to help seperate content.
