Desktop project scheduling and management tool with Gantt charts

GanttProject 3.4 is in its sixth beta, filling gaps users have asked about for years.

◆Current state
GanttProject is a Java desktop scheduler with major versions one to three years apart. The 3.4 Beta VI build in September added custom properties in filters and calculated columns, clickable links in the task table, multi-file import and a manual token path for GanttProject Cloud sign-in. A 3.3 release page dated 8 November restates 3.3's highlights (SQL-calculated columns, project-relative week numbers, native Apple Silicon) with an updated bundled Java runtime.
◆Where it's heading
3.3 introduced SQL-driven calculated columns; 3.4 makes them useful with custom properties and puts more data on the chart itself. Cloud sign-in keeps getting workarounds, so the cloud tie-in from 3.0 is still part of the plan.
◆Prediction
A 3.4 release after six betas is the obvious next step, but the project's slow cadence makes timing hard to call from the entries.

    GanttProject 3.4 beta adds custom-property filters and links

    Beta VI adds custom properties in filters and calculated columns, clickable links in the task table, multi-file import and custom values beside task bars. It builds directly on 3.3's calculated columns and clears several years-old requests.

    GanttProject 3.3

    Calculated columns let custom task-table columns derive their values from SQL expressions, joined by project-relative week numbers and a native Apple Silicon build. It continues the task table's evolution into the product's most programmable surface.

    GanttProject 3.2

    The task table was rewritten with completed-task filtering and multi-column sorting that doesn't destroy the task hierarchy. The foundation the calculated columns in 3.3 are built on.
