The Gantt chart was invented in the 1910s by Henry Laurence Gantt to illustrate project schedules. A Gantt chart uses a bar chart to show the start and finish dates of tasks and milestones in a project. It provides a visual representation of a project work breakdown structure, resource allocation, and schedule. While useful for presenting project status and timelines to managers, Gantt charts can be difficult to update or illustrate dependencies and resource assignments as projects evolve over time.
