ChartGen

A chart generator tool to create Gantt charts and find PERT chart time estimations

This was made for the CS-1606 Software Engineering project at MNNIT Allahabad

The documentations made for the project can be found in the docs branch

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites

Download or clone the repository onto your local machine.

Download the latest version of IntelliJ IDEA from here. The free Community Edition will suffice.

Will need to install the latest version of Java need to be downloaded as well (if it is not already installed). This can be done so from here. Set up the Java path and complete all installation prerequisites.

Go through the IntelliJ IDEA first time setup process. It is recommended to skip everything and leave all the settings the their default values.

Scene Builder needs to be installed from here, if the .fxml files need to opened or edited.

All the .jar libraries need to be downloaded as well.

Import the ChartGen project into IntelliJ IDEA.

Add all the required JAR library files to the File > Project Structure. They are all located under the src folder.

Navigate to Main.java and then right click on the file and click on Run Main. This will run the whole application from the default starting screen.

The PERT chart module can also be run as a standalone module by right clicking on PertChart.java and then clicking on Run PertChart.main().

Status of the project

Things that work
