I know gantt and agile don't mix well, but now that I'm used to plan our projects with EasyRedmine I'm hooked on its gantt charts for planning flexiblity.

How would this fit in Taiga if at all?

How would I plan ahead with Taiga? I'm talking about a project with subprojects, and tasks inside tasks with dependencies between any of those...

Thanks for an elegant piece of software anyway and happy to see such an interesting development coming from my home country.

Hi, sorry for the delay and thanks you very much for you feedback

we think gantt doesn't fit as a core functionality but we support plugins if some wants to develop it http://taigaio.github.io/taiga-doc/dist/#contrib-plugins

I'm adding the other features as possible enhancements for Taiga, thanks!

One question remains though: How would I plan ahead with Taiga?

Hi Al:

I'm Antonio de la Torre, Agile instigator in Taiga.

The Gantt, like a stone-made-planning with dependent and linked tasks, is hard to fit in an agile approach.

But a Gantt idea, like an ordered list of tasks distributed along the way to know when this will finish, we can get it in Taiga.

So, for your planning ahead, and if your are not using Scrum, like it seems, you can create as much sprints as you need, like iterations or milestones, and put inside them the user stories (like tasks) that you are planning to develop.
If you estimate each user story, you can see the sum of points you have planned per sprint.
So, you can plan ahead when your project will finish.

About reflect dependency between user stories, you can do it with the user story's field "Related tasks".

And about projects with subprojects, is in Taiga roadmap and we hope it will be out soon.

Thanks!

Antonio

Hi again!

I just see, that the field 'related taks' are the tasks that belongs to that user story. Is not to refer other user stories.

Anyway, you can reflect a dependency in the description of the user story, or if it is very important, in the title. We came from redmine, and we did that way to view a dependency better.

Best!
