Timeshift does in the first run a complete snapshot of your system. In the second run it will make an incremental snapshot and so on. You can play around with installing this and that and if your system is messed then you can step back to any snapshot in time and it will restore the condition.
It does that in a tricky way and thus needs a physical partition dedicated as snapshot container. This partition can be on an USB attached hdd
