Gantt Chart View
A Gantt chart visually overviews a project's timeline, displaying tasks along a time axis. This tool is widely used in project management to aid teams in planning, scheduling, and tracking task progress. In the chart, each task appears as a horizontal bar. The length of the bar reflects the task's duration, while its position shows the start and end times.
