What is the Gantt Chart Maker?

Build a Gantt chart from task start dates and durations.

Enter each task with a start date and a duration in days, and the tool draws a bar-chart timeline from those values. The bars show overlaps and the overall project length at a glance.

Projects go wrong when nobody can see who does what and by when. A clear chart, register or report keeps a team looking at the same picture.

List tasks in the order they happen and keep durations realistic, since one wrong estimate moves everything after it.

Keep tasks small enough to finish in a week or two.

Update the chart whenever dates change so the team trusts it.
