Edit in DokuwikiEdit in AsciidocEdit in Markdown Gantt Diagram The Gantt is described in natural language, using very simple sentences (subject-verb-complement). Edit in DokuwikiEdit in AsciidocEdit in Markdown Declaring tasks Tasks defined using square bracket. Duration Their durations are defined using the last verb: 🎉 Copied! @startgantt [Prototype design] lasts 15 days [Test prototype] lasts 10 days -- All example -- [Task 1 (1 day)] lasts 1 day [T2 (5 days)] lasts 5 days [T3 (1 week)] lasts 1 week [T4 (1 week and 4 days)] lasts 1 week and 4 days [T5 (2 weeks)] lasts 2 weeks @endgantt A week is a synonym for how many non-closed days are in a week.
