Introduction

Timeline Support is a web extension that integrates Windows Timeline support into popular browsers. This is done by publishing your browsing history as activities to the Microsoft Graph (so a Microsoft Account is required to use this extension). Personal Microsoft Accounts are confirmed to work, work and school accounts should work.

Browser Support

Browser Supported Download Note
Google Chrome Yes Chrome Web Store Fully Supported
Firefox Yes Firefox Addons Fully Supported
Microsoft Edge No n/a Pending news on the new Microsoft Edge. Will most likely use a customised version of the Chrome Extension.
Vivaldi Yes Chrome Web Store Supported Icon Assets. Chrome OAuth Base.
Opera Yes Chrome Web Store Supported Icon Assets. Download from Chrome Web Store on supported Opera versions.
Safari No n/a No support is planned. The costs and effort to port the extension (and then deal with Apple Support) is not worth it.

  2. Run npm install.
  3. Run npm run build to build files or npm run watch for debugging.
