Design and Structure
The diagram uses a horizontal Gantt layout with three main areas: workstream labels, progress values, and a scheduling grid. The timeline spans 28 numbered days grouped under four weekly headings, W1 through W4. Five horizontal rows organize the project into Discovery & Research, UX / Visual Design, Development Sprint, Quality Assurance, and Launch & Handover. Each workstream includes a short supporting description beneath its main label. Alternating row panels help separate activities without adding extra visual elements.
Rounded horizontal bars indicate the scheduled duration of each activity. A filled segment represents completed work, while the remaining segment extends toward the planned finish date. Vertical end markers identify the final day of each task. The progress column displays completion values of 90%, 65%, 45%, 25%, and 10%. Tasks begin at different points on the timeline, revealing overlapping activities and sequential phases. Fine vertical gridlines connect the date markers to the corresponding task bars. A compact legend beneath the chart distinguishes completed work from remaining work.
Practical Applications
