+### Project scheduling
----
+The scheduling engine handles project structure and working time. It covers:
-## Key capabilities
+- [Task types and dependencies](guides/task-types.md), namely regular tasks, project tasks and milestones linked by dependencies;
+- [Working-time configuration](guides/working-time.md) with project-, task-, and resource-specific calendars (*available in the PRO edition*);
+- [Auto scheduling](guides/auto-scheduling.md) to recalculate plans (*available in the PRO edition*);
+- [Critical path](guides/critical-path.md) to highlight the tasks that drive the project finish date (*available in the PRO edition*).
-DHTMLX Gantt combines a scheduling engine, a flexible timeline, and resource tools.
-The sections below highlight the main areas and guide you to more detailed chapters.
+The scheduling behavior is configurable, so you can align it with your internal rules or tools like MS Project.
-### Project scheduling
+### Timeline and grid
-DHTMLX Gantt includes a scheduling engine that comprehends project structure and working time:
+The component combines a data grid on the left with a zoomable time scale on the right. Both parts are extensively configurable:
-- [Task types](guides/task-types.md) and [dependencies](guides/dependencies.md) - three core task types (task, summary, milestone) linked by dependencies.
-- [Working time calendars](guides/working-time/) on project, task, and resource levels.
-- [Auto scheduling](guides/auto-scheduling/) and [critical path](guides/critical-path/) to recalculate plans and highlight the tasks that drive the project finish date.
+- [Flexible layout](guides/layout-config.md) with additional grids, right-side columns, and custom panels;
+- [Configurable columns](guides/specifying-columns.md) with inline editing, drag-and-drop, and keyboard navigation, plus [multi-selection](guides/multiselection.md) available in the PRO edition;
+- [Customizable time scale](guides/configuring-time-scale.md) with markers and highlighted time slots.
-The scheduling behavior is configurable, so you can align it with your internal rules or tools like MS Project.
+### Advanced project controls
-### Timeline & grid
+For more detailed project tracking, the PRO edition of DHTMLX Gantt supports such features as:
-The component combines a data grid on the left with a zoomable time scale on the right, both parts being highly tunable:
+- [Baselines](guides/inbuilt-baselines.md#baselines) and [deadlines](guides/inbuilt-baselines.md#deadlines-and-constraints) to compare planned dates with current ones;
+- [Unscheduled tasks](guides/unscheduled-tasks.md) and [split tasks](guides/split-tasks.md) for incomplete, interrupted, or phased work;
+- [Undo/redo history](guides/undo-redo.md) for safe editing.
-- Flexible [layout](guides/layout-config/) with additional grids, right-side columns, and custom panels.
-- Configurable [columns](guides/specifying-columns/) with inline editing, [multi-selection](guides/multiselection/), drag-and-drop, and keyboard navigation.
-- A customizable [time scale](guides/configuring-time-scale/) with [markers](guides/markers/), and [highlighted time slots](guides/highlighting-time-slots/).
+### Resource and workload management
-### Advanced project controls
+The PRO edition also adds a dedicated resource layer, turning the Gantt chart into a planning interface that covers both task scheduling and workload visibility. This includes:
-For more detailed project tracking, Gantt supports such features as:
+- [Resource assignments](guides/resource-management.md#assigningresources) attached to tasks;
+- [Resource histogram](guides/resource-management.md#resource-histogram) and [resource load diagrams](guides/resource-management.md#resourceloaddiagram) to visualize resource workload;
+- [Grouping tasks by resource](guides/resource-management.md#balancingresourceload) to track workloads, spot conflicts, and balance the team.
-- [Baselines](guides/inbuilt-baselines/#baselines) and [deadlines](guides/inbuilt-baselines/#deadlines-and-constraints) to compare planned dates with current ones.
-- [Unscheduled tasks](guides/unscheduled-tasks/) and [split tasks](guides/split-tasks/) for incomplete, interrupted, or phased work.
-- [Undo/redo](guides/undo-redo) history for safe editing.
+### Interactivity and editing
-### Resource & workload management (PRO)
+The chart is designed to be edited directly by the end user, not just displayed. This is made possible by:
-The PRO edition adds a dedicated resource layer which provides:
+- A configurable [edit form (lightbox)](guides/default-edit-form.md) for viewing and editing task details, with support for custom fields and buttons;
+- [Quick info](guides/quick-info.md) popups and [tooltips](guides/tooltips.md) that surface task details without opening a full form, including touch-friendly templates;
+- [Drag-and-drop task creation and selection](guides/advanced-dnd.md), plus [mouse-drag scrolling of the timeline](api/config/drag_timeline.md);
+- [Keyboard navigation](guides/keyboard-navigation.md) and [accessibility](guides/accessibility.md) support for screen readers and non-mouse input.
-- [Resource assignments](guides/resource-management/#assigningresources) attached to tasks.
-- [Resource histogram](guides/resource-management/#resource-histogram) and [resource load diagrams](guides/resource-management/#resourceloaddiagram).
-- [Grouping tasks](guides/resource-management/#balancingresourceload) by resource to see who is doing what.
+### Customization and styling
-This turns the Gantt chart into a basic tool for managing resources without leaving your application.
+The look of the Gantt chart can be adjusted at every level, from a full theme to a single task bar, through:
-### Export & ecosystem
+- A set of built-in [skins](guides/skins.md) built on CSS variables, with support for [deep customization](guides/custom-skins.md) and creating new themes;
+- [Templates](guides/common-configuration.md#gantttemplatesobject) to override how tasks, links, and grid cells are rendered;
+- Fine-grained [task coloring](guides/colouring-tasks.md) and [link styling](guides/colouring-lines.md) to visually highlight specific items;
+- [Localization](guides/localization.md) support for interface language and date/time formats.
-DHTMLX Gantt integrates with external tools and output formats ensuring great export/import possibilities:
+For the full list of CSS selectors and styling examples for the grid, timeline and resource panel, see the [CSS documentation](guides/css-overview.md).
-- Export to [PDF/PNG](guides/export/) and [Excel](guides/excel/) (including a [Node.js export module](guides/export-requirements/)).
-- Export/import to [MS Project](guides/export-msproject/) and [Primavera](guides/export-primavera/) (via export service).
+### Export and ecosystem

+To see DHTMLX Gantt in action, explore the online demos:
-- As a standalone JS widget on any page.
-- Wrapped into [React](integrations/react), [Angular](integrations/angular/quick-start), [Vue](integrations/vue/quick-start), or [Svelte](integrations/svelte/howtostart-svelte) components.
+- [Basic Gantt chart with tasks and links](https://docs.dhtmlx.com/gantt/samples/?sample=%2701_initialization/01_basic_init.html%27&filter=%27%27)
+- [Auto scheduling](https://docs.dhtmlx.com/gantt/samples/?sample=%2702_extensions/12_auto_scheduling.html%27&filter=%27%27) and [critical path](https://docs.dhtmlx.com/gantt/samples/?sample=%2702_extensions/03_critical_path.html%27&filter=%27%27) examples
+- Resource management: [diagram](https://docs.dhtmlx.com/gantt/samples/?sample=%2711_resources/04_resource_usage_diagram.html%27&filter=%27%27) and [histogram](https://docs.dhtmlx.com/gantt/samples/?sample=%2711_resources/09_resource_histogram.html%27&filter=%27%27)
-For **React** you have two options:
+View [all samples](https://docs.dhtmlx.com/gantt/samples/?sample=%2701_initialization/01_basic_init.html%27&filter=%27%27) to check the full range of Gantt features.
-- Use the [official ReactGantt wrapper](integrations/react), which exposes Gantt as a declarative React component with props for configuration and events. This is usually the best choice for new React projects.
-- Follow the [low-level React integration guide](integrations/react/js-gantt-react/) if you prefer to embed the core Gantt widget yourself and control initialization, destruction, and data flow manually.
+For framework-oriented starting points, see the example repositories for [React](https://github.com/DHTMLX/react-gantt-examples), [Angular](https://github.com/DHTMLX/angular-gantt-examples), and [Vue](https://github.com/DHTMLX/vue-gantt-examples).
-For **Angular**, **Vue**, and **Svelte**, the [How to start](integrations/howtostart-guides) guides show how to build a thin wrapper component that fits your application architecture.
+Some samples demonstrate PRO functionality, so check the [Community vs PRO comparison](guides/editions-comparison.md) before reusing them in a Community edition project.
-### Backend integration
+## Editions and licensing
-On the backend side, Gantt communicates with a REST-like API:
+DHTMLX Gantt is available in two editions: **Community** and **PRO**. You can start with the free Community edition and upgrade to the PRO version later if you need more features, official support, and a fully maintained Gantt foundation. You may also start directly with the PRO edition either through an **official trial** or with a paid license. Choose one of the following options to get started with DHTMLX Gantt:
-- Data is typically loaded and saved as [JSON (tasks, links, resources, assignments)](guides/loading/).
-- The built-in [DataProcessor](guides/server-side/) helps routing the create/update/delete operations to your server.
-- There are [tutorials](integrations/howtostart-guides/#how-to-start-with-gantt-on-server-side) for popular backend platforms and frameworks ([Node.js](integrations/node/howtostart-nodejs/), [.NET Core](integrations/dotnet/howtostart-dotnet-core/), [Laravel](integrations/php/howtostart-php-laravel/), etc.) that cover CRUD operations and best practices for syncing Gantt with your database.
+- **[Community edition](https://dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxGantt/open-source/).** Free and MIT-licensed, it covers the core interactive Gantt features for DHTMLX Gantt v10+.
+- **[Official trial](https://dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxGantt/download.shtml).** It lets you evaluate the full PRO feature set and receive technical support during the trial period.
+- **[PRO edition](https://dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxGantt/#licensing).** Built for production environments, it includes advanced planning features, official support and commercial licensing.
-Thus, it is easy to plug Gantt into existing systems or new micro services.
+To see the exact feature differences between editions, check the [Community vs PRO comparison](guides/editions-comparison.md). For the setup flow of each option, see the [installation guide](guides/installation.md).
