The package supports drawing timelines and aims to be highly customisable. Extensive configuration options are offered via a standard key-value interface based on pgfkeys. Custom colour schemes and styles are supported, and the package includes documented examples of each. Memoization works out-of-the-box if the memoize package is loaded. The code was developed as a result of questions concerning difficulties in customising the output of existing packages for drawing timelines, which sometimes eschew pgfkeys and are often challenging to configure, even when based on PGF/TikZ.
chronos is based on TikZ, but uses some functions from expl3.
