provide a substantive reply: What is a work breakdown structure (WBS)? What is a Gantt chart? What is the difference between a WBS and Gantt chart? A work breakdown structure is where a project is broken down into a series of smaller assignments. This makes a complex project easier to manage through completing the smaller assignments, working your way to the end goal. A WBS is usually seen through hierarchical structured outlines with their relationships that displays all of the work required to complete the project. Definitely a good way to schedule and plan out the project. Gantt charts were developed "almost 100 years ago by Henry L. Gantt, whose goal was to design a chart that could show planned and actual progress on a project" (Tilley 2020). The Gantt chart is a horizontal bar chart, and those bars represent tasks. The position of the bars are the planned start time and the planned end time of each individual task, and the length is the duration of time for that task. Gantt charts project management tool shows how work is progressing over time in the relation to the planned time. They simplify complex projects by combining activities into a task
