PropTypeDefaultDescription
titlestring"How It Works"Optional heading displayed above the timeline. An empty string hides it.
descriptionstring"From zero to retro in four steps"Optional subtitle displayed below the heading. An empty string hides it.
stepsTimelineStep[]Four built-in stepsTimeline entries. Each step requires `icon: ReactNode`, `title: string`, and `description: string`; `badge?: string` adds an optional badge.
classNamestring—Optional class name added to the outer section.
Accessibility
- The heading and step titles use semantic heading elements (`h2` and `h3`); descriptions are paragraphs.
- The connecting line is a decorative, empty `div` and does not add content to the accessibility tree.
- Provide meaningful step titles and descriptions; ensure custom `icon` content is understandable or appropriately hidden from assistive technology.
- Step titles are used as React keys, so keep them unique within the `steps` array.
