Gantt chart with computed critical path (website relaunch)
A calendar Gantt for a website relaunch — sections, a weekday-only date axis, progress overlays, a milestone, and a today marker. The bars are placed from the engine's computed schedule, so the critical path is highlighted in red and off-path tasks show their slack — something a hand-placed (Mermaid) Gantt can't do.
For the project manager who wants the schedule computed, not typed
What this shows
A real Gantt chart where you type dependencies, not dates. Each task declares a duration and what it comes after:; the engine runs the forward/backward pass and places the bars from the computed Early Start / Early Finish.
The critical path is computed and drawn in red — A → B → C → D → F → Go live. "Backend API" runs in parallel off the critical path, so it's drawn in the resting blue with its slack annotated: you can start it 16 working days late without slipping the launch. The 5day calendar excludes weekends from the timeline, lane: bands the rows into Plan / Design / Build sections, the 40 % progress overlay marks how far Visual design has got, and the dashed today line shows where the project stands. This is the differentiator over a typed Gantt: change one duration and the whole schedule — and the critical path — recomputes.
