A complete Gantt editor in the browser
Teamwork’s team in its core developer instance (Roberto Bicchierai) has released a free online service for designing “Gantts” online, here:
This editor is a Gantt editor as for functionality, but it actually supports the more extended functionality of Teamwork modeling, supporting task state management as distinct from dates management. Supports multi assignments, dependencies, drag&drop, zooming and much more.
Technically it is an interesting solution because it runs completely on the client (the browser) and its built on jQuery, the most popular JavaScript framework. As JavaScript component it is free and can be used in any kind of project, thanks to its MIT license – just download it here.
Before developing this component we carefully researched the available online Gantt components – a review here:
But in the end our requirements (like being built on jQuery) were not satisfied by any of the linked above, so we built our own.
A coming Teamwork update will include the option to import such Gantts in Teamwork, and also a built-in version of this complete and flexible editor.
