Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

i’m planning a road trip and wanted to plan it out using a Gantt chart. I searched the repositories and did not find anything. Does anyone have any recommendations? (I actually am fun at parties)

What about Mermaid? https://mermaid.js.org/syntax/gantt.html

It supports Gantt charts and has a pretty nice language for modifying chart content once you get used to it.

I use Obsidian with the Mermaid plugin for offline work, but there are tons of good web-based options out there, too.

PlantUML supports Gantt charts if I remember correctly. Can run locally (java if I'm not mistaken) or via web.

Why a gantt chart for a road trip though. There are not that many parallel things you usually do, no?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

yeah its overkill. any kind of timeline software would work.

Libre office calc would do the trick also, every cell is a day for example

I used planner recently https://wiki.gnome.org/action/show/Apps/Planner?action=show&redirect=Planner

I also searched a lot z and didn't find good options. It works, but I don't like the way it looked.

You could use ProjectLibre although it might be overkill

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Yeah, it's overkill, and also breaks on anything newer than java 11 or 12

I don't know any specific desktop applications, but you could try libre office calc :D

Planner does Gantt charts, graphical ui.

I used OpenProject before. Mainly for easy collaboration through the web though, I don't think it offers a native version.

calligra plan has this iirc

Due to the nature if those charts, they're usually web based, not desktop native, and will probably have to be self hosted, even just locally. For example, Redmine supports Gantt charts and can be spun up fairly easily from its Docker image.
