The Smart Gantt plugin allows users to visualize tasks from their Obsidian vault as Gantt charts, providing a clear timeline for task management and planning. It intelligently parses task data, including checkboxes and time references, to generate interactive Gantt charts. Users can quickly navigate to task locations directly from the chart and customize settings through an intuitive interface or by manually editing JSON configurations. This plugin is ideal for users seeking an organized and visual way to manage projects and deadlines across their notes.
