Introduction

I learnt Gantt Chart for a couple of times. First from Economic and Management class, then from Engineering management class. Gantt Chart plays a crucial part in efficiency, based on a combination of clear classification and evolving progress display. Moreover, Gantt Chart comes first when it comes to visualization. This leads to this short report of how I developed a timeline of Gantt Chart.

Reflections

1. I did a first project of History of Chinese Architecture and it is not related to data visualization so I stopped.

2. Gantt Chart is pivotal, the Milestones where we found topics is a Gantt Chart Milestone itself.

3. Proper tools accelerates the process of creating a visualization. Thanks to this program and the author who created the tool.

4. The classic application of tools is fundamental to creating fresh new reports in the future.
