2026-07-18 - Building the field log timeline

Added a reusable, scrollable timeline for short development notes. Each daily entry is indexed in the monthly file’s entries front matter and links back to this date heading.

The timeline is generated at build time with Liquid and uses the site’s theme variables, so it follows light and dark mode automatically.

Follow-up work

  • Add new daily records to the entries array in date order.
  • Add the corresponding detailed note under a ## YYYY-MM-DD heading.
  • Use ordinary Markdown for paragraphs, lists, emphasis, code, and links.
