Get to a useful chart in five steps.
A quick walkthrough of what to click first. Built to be read once — for breadth, jump to Features; for keyboard depth, press ? inside any view.
Create a project, add tasks
From your project list, hit New project. Inside, the sidebar holds the work-breakdown — Phases (groupings), Tasks (the actual work), and Subtasks (breakdowns of a task). Click + New task in the top bar, or press Tab inside a row to nest deeper, Shift+Tab to outdent. Drag a row's left edge to reorder.
Schedule on the timeline
Drag a bar left or right to move it; drag the edge to resize. Phases roll up from their children, so to change a phase's range you adjust the inner tasks. The today line and weekend shading help you place work; ⌘⇧A auto-schedules everything downstream of the bar you just moved.
Link dependencies
Drag from the right edge of one bar to another to draw a finish-to-start link. The popover on each arrow flips between FS / SS / FF / SF and lets you add positive or negative lag. Backward links are caught and rendered in red instead of being silently allowed.
Track progress and context
Every task has a rich-text Description (drag, paste, or click 🖼 to embed images — they auto-compress) and a Progress Notes journal that opens at the full chart width. The 0–100% slider drives the bar's fill; the status pill (Open / In progress / Done) flips the chip in the header at a glance.
Share with your team
Invite teammates from Workspace settings — assignees own the work, stakeholders just get notified. For external review, toggle a public read-only link, paste the iframe into your wiki, or export PDF / PNG / CSV from the Reports overlay (⌘⇧P → Generate report).
Keyboard shortcuts
Press ? in any view for the full cheat sheet. Highlights: ⌘⇧P opens the command palette, ⌘F focuses search, ⌘D duplicates, ⌘⌫ deletes, ⌘Z / ⌘⇧Z undoes and redoes (and yes, auto-schedule is undoable).
