Techopedia Explains Gantt Chart

A Gantt chart makes it simple to create, view and monitor project activities and tasks over a given time. Typically, each activity, process or task in a Gantt chart is represented by a horizontal bar scaled parallel to a calendar and/or dates. The start and end of each bar represent the start and the end of that particular activity. Gantt charts help in quickly understanding the different tasks in a project, their schedule (start and end date) and any overlapping tasks or activities.
