That's really nice, such a good idea.

Over the last 15 years the browser has become more and more of an application delivery platform, and that notion has caused SaaS to run basically everything.

I realised this not too long ago, and incidentally it was due to gantt software.

We, like everyone it seems, use Jira for issue tracking, but the actual roadmapping of resources and dependencies leaves a lot to be desired, tools like Microsoft Project are not only prohibitively expensive- they also don't work on MacOS.

Similar issues can be levied at Omnigraph.

Only SaaS tools like "InstaGantt" seem to fit the bill of cross-platform, lightweight and reasonably cost effective.

Note: I'm currently not using Instagantt, despite it being the closest to good I could find, because I dislike subscriptions. :(
