Shadcn Gantt Chart
Build modern project timelines with customizable Shadcn Gantt Chart blocks for planning tasks, tracking progress, and managing schedules
Shadcn Gantt Chart Blocks
Shadcn Gantt Chart Blocks are modern project timeline components designed to help teams visualize schedules, task dependencies, and resource allocation in a single connected view. Built using Shadcn UI, Tailwind CSS, and React, these blocks display projects, tasks, and bookings as horizontal bars plotted against a timeline, making it easy to see what's happening, who owns it, and when it's due.
Gantt charts are widely used in project management tools, engineering dashboards, resourcing platforms, and agency scheduling resources. Instead of building a custom timeline grid from scratch, developers use Gantt chart blocks to render project bars, subtasks, and workload rows with zoom controls for day, week, month, and quarter views.
At Shadcn Studio, developers can explore a large collection of Shadcn Blocks. The Gantt chart blocks provide grouped rows by owner or team, draggable task bars, status indicators, and date-range labels that make timeline-heavy interfaces easy to build and customize.
What Is a Gantt Chart in Web Design?
A Gantt chart is a timeline-based UI component that represents tasks, projects, or bookings as horizontal bars positioned across a calendar grid, where the bar's length and placement reflect its start and end dates.
A typical Gantt chart includes:
- A left-hand panel listing projects, tasks, or resources, often grouped by owner
- A horizontal timeline header showing days, weeks, months, or quarters
- Task bars representing duration, progress, or status
- Nested subtasks or rows that expand and collapse under a parent item
- View controls to switch between Day, Week, Month, and Quarter
- Filters, status badges, and assignee avatars attached to each bar
The Gantt chart acts as a visual planning surface that maps time against ownership, helping teams spot overlaps, bottlenecks, and upcoming deadlines at a glance. In modern web apps, a single scrollable timeline also replaces multiple disconnected lists or calendars.
Components Used in These Gantt Chart Blocks
Gantt chart blocks are assembled from a small set of shadcn/ui components: Avatar for assignees, Badge for status labels, Button for adding tasks, Tabs for switching between Day, Week, Month, and Quarter views, Tooltip for task details on hover and Select for filters.

Base UI and Radix UI Gantt Chart Block Support
Shadcn Studio layouts can be integrated into scalable Base UI Gantt Chart Block workflows for modern React applications. Developers can build accessible and composable timeline systems while maintaining flexible planning structures and reusable scheduling interfaces.
The layouts also work well with Radix UI Gantt Chart Block implementations commonly used in the Shadcn ecosystem. Developers can leverage accessible primitives, composable timeline structures, and reusable scheduling workflows for production-ready applications, and many teams prefer these patterns for scalable planning systems and modern admin experiences.
