Timeline of computing 2020–present

This article presents a detailed timeline of events in the history of computing from 2020 to the present. For narratives explaining the overall developments, see the history of computing.

Significant events in computing include events relating directly or indirectly to software, hardware and wetware. Excluded (except in instances of significant functional overlap) are:

• events in general robotics
• events about uses of computational tools in biotechnology and similar fields (except for improvements to the underlying computational tools) as well as events in media-psychology except when those are directly linked to computational tools

Currently excluded are:

• events in computer insecurity/hacking incidents/breaches/Internet conflicts/malware if they are not also about milestones towards computer security
• events about quantum computing and communication
• economic events and events of new technology policy beyond standardization
