   - 22 comprehensive component tests
   - Tests rendering, interactions, accessibility, edge cases
   - Tests PDA-friendly language

5. **`apps/web/src/components/gantt/types.test.ts`** (204 lines)
   - 11 tests for helper functions
   - Tests type conversions and edge cases

#### Demo Page

6. **`apps/web/src/app/demo/gantt/page.tsx`** (316 lines)
   - Interactive demo with sample project data
   - Shows 7 sample tasks with various statuses
   - Task selection and details display
   - Statistics dashboard

### Test Results

```
✓ All 33 tests passing (100%)
  - 22 component tests
  - 11 helper function tests

Coverage: 96.18% (exceeds 85% requirement)

  - types.ts: 91.3%
  - Overall gantt module: 96.18%
```

### Features Implemented

#### Core Features ✅

- [x] Task name, start date, end date display
- [x] Visual timeline bars
- [x] Status-based color coding
  - Completed: Green
  - In Progress: Blue
  - Paused: Yellow
  - Not Started: Gray
  - Archived: Light Gray
- [x] Interactive task selection (onClick callback)
- [x] Responsive design with customizable height

#### PDA-Friendly Design ✅

- [x] "Target passed" instead of "OVERDUE"
- [x] "Approaching target" for near-deadline tasks
- [x] Non-judgmental, supportive language throughout

#### Accessibility ✅

- [x] Proper ARIA labels for all interactive elements
- [x] Keyboard navigation support (Tab + Enter)
- [x] Screen reader friendly
- [x] Semantic HTML structure

#### Technical Requirements ✅

- [x] Next.js 16 + React 19
- [x] TypeScript with strict typing (NO `any` types)
- [x] TailwindCSS + Shadcn/ui patterns
- [x] Follows `~/.claude/agent-guides/frontend.md`
- [x] Follows `~/.claude/agent-guides/typescript.md`

#### Testing (TDD) ✅

- [x] Tests written FIRST before implementation
- [x] 96.18% coverage (exceeds 85% requirement)
- [x] All edge cases covered
- [x] Accessibility tests included

### Dependencies (Stretch Goals)

- [ ] Visual dependency lines (planned for future)
- [ ] Drag-to-resize task dates (planned for future)

_Note: Dependencies infrastructure is in place (tasks can have `dependencies` array), but visual rendering is not yet implemented. The `showDependencies` prop is accepted and ready for future implementation._

### Integration

The component integrates seamlessly with existing Task model from Prisma:

```typescript
// Convert existing tasks to Gantt format
import { toGanttTasks } from '@/components/gantt';

const tasks: Task[] = await fetchTasks();
const ganttTasks = toGanttTasks(tasks);

// Use the component
<GanttChart
  tasks={ganttTasks}
  onTaskClick={(task) => console.log(task)}
  height={500}
/>
```

### Demo

View the interactive demo at: **`/demo/gantt`**

The demo includes:

- 7 sample tasks representing a typical project
- Various task statuses (completed, in-progress, paused, not started)
- Statistics dashboard
- Task selection and detail view
- Toggle for dependencies (UI placeholder)

### Git Commit

```
Branch: feature/15-gantt-chart
Commit: 9ff7718
Message: feat(#15): implement Gantt chart component
```

### Next Steps

1. **Merge to develop** - Ready for code review
2. **Integration testing** - Test with real task data from API
3. **Future enhancements:**
   - Implement visual dependency lines
   - Add drag-to-resize functionality
   - Add task grouping by project
   - Add zoom controls for timeline
   - Add export to image/PDF

## Blockers/Decisions

### No Blockers ✅

All requirements met without blockers.

### Decisions Made:

1. **Start/End Dates**: Used `metadata.startDate` for flexibility. If not present, falls back to `createdAt`. This avoids schema changes while supporting proper Gantt visualization.

2. **Dependencies**: Stored in `metadata.dependencies` as string array. Visual rendering deferred to future enhancement.

3. **Timeline Range**: Auto-calculated from task dates with 5% padding for better visualization.

4. **Color Scheme**: Based on existing TaskItem component patterns for consistency.

5. **Accessibility**: Full ARIA support with keyboard navigation as first-class feature.

## Summary

✅ **Complete** - Gantt chart component fully implemented with:

- 96.18% test coverage (33 tests passing)
- PDA-friendly language
- Full accessibility support
- Interactive demo page
- Production-ready code
- Strict TypeScript (no `any` types)
- Follows all coding standards

Ready for code review and merge to develop.
