Template in Blazor Timeline component

20 Mar 20246 minutes to read

The Timeline component allows you to customize the appearance for each item by using the Template tag directive to modify the dot items, templated contents, progress bar styling and more.

The Template context receives the following information:

Type	Purpose
Item	Indicates the current data of the Timeline item.
ItemIndex	Indicates the current index of the Timeline item.
