</section>The AI prompt
Paste this into an AI coding tool to generate the same section, then ask it to adapt the colours, text or framework to your project.
Create a vertical product roadmap timeline section in HTML and CSS. Requirements: - Continuous vertical progress line with connected milestone nodes. - Status states: Shipped (green checkmark), In Progress (blue pulsing dot), and Planned (outlined node). - Cards beside each node with quarter badge, release dates, and technical deliverable descriptions. - Hover transition that shifts cards horizontally (translateX(6px)). Return one HTML file with a <style> block.
How to build it, step by step
- 1
Use ::before pseudo-element with linear-gradient background to create glowing timeline spine.
- 2
Position milestone circle nodes absolutely over the spine.
- 3
Add milestone cards with status badges and deliverable copy.
Customisation tips
- Animate current in-progress milestone node with a subtle scale pulse to indicate active development.
