It aims to be a clear and concise resource for tracking the industry's rapid progress.\n\n## Features\n\n- **Yearly Sections:** Events organized by year.\n- **Monthly Events:** Clear breakdown of events within each month.\n- **Key Event Highlighting:** Important milestones are visually emphasized.\n- **Sortable View:** Toggle between newest-first and oldest-first chronological order.\n- **Dark Mode:** Switch between light and dark themes.\n- **Responsive Design:** Works well on desktop and mobile devices.\n- **Further Reading:** Links to related articles and resources.\n\n## How to Use\n\n1.  **Visit the Timeline:** [https://nhlocal.github.io/AiTimeline/](https://nhlocal.github.io/AiTimeline/)\n2.  **Navigate:** Scroll or use the year links at the top.\n3.  **Sort:** Use the \"Sort\" button to change the timeline order.\n4.  **Theme:** Use the toggle button (moon/sun icon) to switch between dark and light modes.\n\n## How the Site Works\n\nThis site is built using **Jekyll**, a static site generator.\n\n-   **Timeline Content:** Managed in two files within the `_data` folder:\n    -   `timeline.md`: Human-readable Markdown format. **Edit this file to contribute events.**\n    -   `timeline.yml`: YAML format used by Jekyll. **This file is generated automatically.**\n-   **Conversion Script:** A Python script (`scripts/convert_timeline_events.py`) converts `timeline.md` to `timeline.yml`.\n-   **Other Key Files:**\n    -   `index.md`: Main page structure.\n    -   `_layouts/default.html`: Base HTML template.\n    -   `assets/`: CSS styles and JavaScript.\n    -   `_data/links.yml`: Links for the \"Learn more\" section.\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions are welcome! Help keep the timeline accurate and up-to-date.\n\n1.  **Fork \u0026 Clone:** Fork the repository to your GitHub account and clone it locally.\n    ```bash\n    git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/AiTimeline.git\n    cd AiTimeline\n    ```\n\n2.  **Edit `timeline.md`:**\n    *   Open `_data/timeline.md`.\n    *   Add or modify events using the existing format (`# Year:`, `## Month`, `- Event description`).\n    *   Use `**bold text**` for emphasis (e.g., model names).\n    *   **To highlight an event, add `(*special*)` at the end of its line** (with a space before it).\n        ```markdown\n        ## March\n        - An important event happened. (*special*)\n        - A regular event occurred.\n        ```\n\n3.  **Run the Conversion Script:**\n    *   Make sure you have Python 3 installed.\n    *   In your terminal (from the project root):\n        ```bash\n        python scripts/convert_timeline_events.py\n        ```\n    *   Enter `_data/timeline.md` when prompted for the input file. This will update `_data/timeline.yml`.\n\n4.  **Commit Changes:**\n    *   **Important:** Stage and commit *both* the `.md` and the generated `.yml` file.\n        ```bash\n        git add _data/timeline.md _data/timeline.yml\n        git commit -m \"Add [brief description of your change]\"\n        ```\n\n5.  **Push and Create Pull Request:**\n    *   Push your changes to your fork: `git push origin main` (or your branch name).\n    *   Go to your fork on GitHub and open a Pull Request to the `main` branch of `NHLOCAL/AiTimeline`.\n\n## Feedback and Suggestions\n\nHave feedback, found a bug, or want to suggest an addition?
