How to use it:

1. Include jQuery Timeline plugin's CSS in the header of the webpage.

<link href="jquery.timeline.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

2. Create a placeholder element in which you want to render the timeline slider.

<div id="my-timeline"></div>

3. Include jQuery library and the jQuery Timeline plugin's JavaScript at the bottom of the webpage.

<!-- Include jQuery -->
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.min.js" 
        integrity="sha384-tsQFqpEReu7ZLhBV2VZlAu7zcOV+rXbYlF2cqB8txI/8aZajjp4Bqd+V6D5IgvKT" 
        crossorigin="anonymous">
</script>
<!-- Include jQuery Timeline Plugin -->
<script src="jquery.timeline.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

4. Create an array of events object for the timeline sldier.

var myEvents = [{
      date: 'Q1 - 2017',
      content: 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet'
    },{
      date: 'Q2 - 2017',
      content: 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet'
    },{
      date: 'Q3 - 2017',
      content: 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet'
    },
    // ...
    {
      date: 'Q3 - 2018',
      content: 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet'
    }
];

5. Initialize the plugin to present the events on the timeline slider.

$('#my-timeline').timeline(myEvents);

6. Specify how many events to show in the same slide.

$('#my-timeline').timeline(myEvents,{
  eventsPerSlide: 5 // default: 6
});

7. Specify the initial slide.

$('#my-timeline').timeline(myEvents,{
  slide: 2 // default: 1
});

8. Customize the prev/next navigation.

$('#my-timeline').timeline(myEvents,{
  // default: 'prev'
  prevArrow: '<i class="material-icons">keyboard_arrow_left</i>',
  // default: 'next'
  nextArrow: '<i class="material-icons">keyboard_arrow_right</i>'
  
});

9. The default event template.

$('#my-timeline').timeline(myEvents,{
  eventTemplate: '<li class="timeline__events__event">' +
                    '<div class="event">' +
                      '<div class="event__date">####DATE###</div>' +
                      '<div class="event__content">####CONTENT###</div>' +
