Jira Gantt: A Solution for Flattening and Planning Jira Tickets
Jira Gantt is a Chrome add-on developed by Toan Nguyen that provides a solution for flattening all Jira tickets and allows users to create a Gantt chart to plan and monitor the progress of their projects. This add-on supports fetching and flattening all Jira cloud tickets, whether they are from sprints or JQL, via read-only API access.
With Jira Gantt, users can manually create a Gantt chart to plan their tickets locally. Additionally, users have the option to export and import the planning information to and from Google Sheets, providing flexibility and convenience in managing their project plans.
This add-on is particularly useful in cases where a detailed plan is required for each story to optimize the performance of specialized teams. For example, if you have team members dedicated to QA and development work, but not a cross-functional team, Jira Gantt allows you to plan the development and testing work separately for each user story.
The planning flow with Jira Gantt is straightforward. Users can fetch their sprint backlog to the tool as a dashboard, export it to Google Sheets for all team members to input the planning dates, and then import the planning dates back into the tool. Alternatively, users can input the planning dates directly within the tool's user interface.
Jira Gantt is a free add-on available on the Chrome platform. It falls under the category of Browsers and the subcategory of Add-ons & Tools. Whether you're a project manager or a team member looking for an efficient way to plan and monitor your Jira tickets, Jira Gantt provides a user-friendly solution to streamline your project management process.
