+# SVAR Gantt Integration for Worklenz
+
+This directory contains the integration of SVAR Gantt chart component into the Worklenz project management system.
+
+## Overview
+
+SVAR Gantt is a modern React Gantt chart component that provides interactive project timeline visualization. This integration allows users to view their project tasks in a Gantt chart format within the Worklenz project view.
+
+## Components
+
+### `project-view-gantt.tsx`
+Main component that handles:
+- Task data transformation from Worklenz format to SVAR Gantt format
+- Redux state management integration
+- Dark/light theme support
+- Loading states and error handling
+- Event handling for task interactions
+
+### `gantt-custom-styles.css`
+Custom CSS that provides:
+- Theme-aware styling (light/dark mode)
+- Worklenz brand color integration
+- Responsive design adjustments
+- Smooth theme transitions
+
+## Features
+
+### ✅ Implemented
+- **Task Visualization**: Displays tasks and subtasks as Gantt bars
+- **Group Support**: Shows task groups as summary tasks
+- **Progress Tracking**: Visual progress indicators on task bars
+- **Dark Mode**: Full dark/light theme compatibility
+- **Responsive Design**: Works on desktop and mobile devices
+- **Redux Integration**: Uses existing Worklenz Redux state management
+- **Filtering**: Integrates with existing task filters
+- **Loading States**: Proper skeleton loading while data loads
+
+### 🚧 Planned Enhancements
+- **Task Editing**: Click to open task drawer for editing
+- **Drag & Drop**: Update task dates by dragging bars
+- **Dependency Links**: Show task dependencies as links
+- **Real-time Updates**: Live updates when tasks change
+- **Export Features**: Export Gantt chart as PDF/image
+- **Critical Path**: Highlight critical path in projects
+
+## Data Transformation
+
+The component transforms Worklenz task data structure to SVAR Gantt format:
+
+```typescript
+// Worklenz Task Group → SVAR Gantt Summary Task
+{
+  id: `group-${group.id}`,
+  text: group.name,
+  start: groupStartDate,
+  end: groupEndDate,
+  type: 'summary',
+  parent: 0,
+  progress: group.done_progress
+}
+
+// Worklenz Task → SVAR Gantt Task
+{
+  id: task.id,
+  text: task.name,
+  start: task.start_date,
+  end: task.end_date,
+  type: task.sub_tasks_count > 0 ? 'summary' : 'task',
+  parent: `group-${group.id}`,
+  progress: task.progress / 100
+}
+```
+
+## Theme Integration
+
+The component uses Worklenz's theme system:
+
+```typescript
+// Theme detection from Redux
+const themeMode = useAppSelector(state => state.themeReducer.mode);
+const isDarkMode = themeMode === 'dark';
+
+// Dynamic CSS classes
+<div className={`gantt-container ${isDarkMode ? 'gantt-dark-mode' : 'gantt-light-mode'}`}>
+```
+
+### Theme Variables
+
+**Light Mode:**
+- Task bars: `#1890ff` (Worklenz primary blue)
+- Summary tasks: `#52c41a` (Worklenz green)
+- Backgrounds: `#ffffff`, `#fafafa`
+- Borders: `#d9d9d9`
+
+**Dark Mode:**
+- Task bars: `#4096ff` (Lighter blue for contrast)
+- Summary tasks: `#73d13d` (Lighter green for contrast)
+- Backgrounds: `#1f1f1f`, `#262626`
+- Borders: `#424242`
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Gantt Settings
+```typescript
+const ganttConfig = {
+  scales: [
+    { unit: 'month', step: 1, format: 'MMMM yyyy' },
+    { unit: 'day', step: 1, format: 'd' }
+  ],
+  columns: [
+    { id: 'text', header: 'Task Name', width: 200 },
+    { id: 'start', header: 'Start Date', width: 100 },
+    { id: 'end', header: 'End Date', width: 100 },
+    { id: 'progress', header: 'Progress', width: 80 }
+  ],
+  taskHeight: 32,
+  rowHeight: 40
+};
+```
+
+## Dependencies
+
+- `wx-react-gantt`: SVAR Gantt React component
+- `wx-react-gantt/dist/gantt.css`: Base SVAR Gantt styles
+- External CDN for icons: `https://cdn.svar.dev/fonts/wxi/wx-icons.css`
+
+## Usage
+
+The Gantt tab is automatically available in the project view tabs. Users can:
+1. Navigate to a project
+2. Click the "Gantt" tab
+3. View tasks in timeline format
+4. Use existing filters to refine the view
+5. Toggle between light/dark themes
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+- **Lazy Loading**: Component is lazy-loaded to reduce initial bundle size
+- **Data Memoization**: Task transformation is memoized to prevent unnecessary recalculations
+- **Batch Loading**: Initial data fetching is batched for efficiency
+- **Conditional Rendering**: Only renders when tab is active (destroyInactiveTabPane)
+
+## Browser Support
+
+Compatible with all modern browsers that support:
+- ES6+ JavaScript features
+- CSS Grid and Flexbox
+- CSS Custom Properties (variables)
+- React 18+
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+1. **Styles not loading**: Ensure CSS import order is correct
+2. **Theme not updating**: Check Redux theme state
+3. **Tasks not displaying**: Verify task data has required fields (name, dates)
+4. **Performance issues**: Check if too many tasks are being rendered
+
+### Debug Tips
+
+```typescript
+// Enable console logging for debugging
+console.log('Gantt data:', ganttData);
+console.log('Theme mode:', themeMode);
+console.log('Task groups:', taskGroups);
+```
+
+## Contributing
+
+When modifying the Gantt integration:
+
+1. Test both light and dark themes
+2. Verify responsive behavior
+3. Check performance with large datasets
+4. Update this README if adding new features
+5. Follow Worklenz coding standards and patterns
