ℹ️ Created in 2022 by Pierre Raybaut, developed and maintained by the PyPlanning project team with the support of Codra.

PyPlanning is a small planning tool initially developed for internal use at Codra. The main goal of this project is to provide a simple and easy-to-use planning tool for small teams or small projects, i.e. in cases where using a full-featured project management software is overkill.

Examples

Team schedule (daily view)

Team schedule (tasks view)

Future plans

High-priority tasks

Fix the following issues:

[ ] FIXME: Sometimes, task color combox box is not shown in the tree widget (a line edit is shown instead) [ ] TODO: Performance: process only gantt objects affected by changes [ ] TODO: Performance: update only visible chart? (this is it!) [ ] TODO: Performance: run chart update in a thread? [ ] TODO: New feature: custom chart names (instead of automatic indexed names)

Medium-priority tasks

Implement the following features:

[ ] TODO: Add support for hidden time frames in charts, for improving readability in case of long tasks [ ] TODO: Task: add "duplicate" action [ ] TODO: Task tree widget: add sub-context-menu "Bind to": resources [ ] TODO: Chart tree widget: add multiple checkboxes to select projects [ ] TODO: Chart tree widget: add QComboBox for editing the "project" field

Low-priority tasks

Implement the following features:

[ ] TODO: Vacation: add the possibility to set duration in days [ ] TODO: Add "percent_done" support for tasks [ ] TODO: Performance: add an option to update on demand? [ ] TODO: Replace python-gantt (planning/gantt.py) by an alternative with less restrictive license terms (no GPL!)
