The Chronology plugin provides a sidebar calendar view that allows users to visualize, browse, and interact with their notes based on creation or modification dates. Users can view notes by day, week, month, or custom date ranges. The timeline visualization highlights when notes were created or modified, and users can opt for a simple list view instead. Notes grouped within the same time slot can be displayed together. The calendar tiles offer visual cues, showing the number of notes created or edited on each day. Clicking on note names opens them, and using Ctrl or Command-click opens notes in a new pane. This plugin also addresses issues with Obsidian Sync by using metadata to correctly identify the actual creation or modification dates of notes.
