WBS Gantt is useful for detailed planning when you need to understand task sequence, timing, milestones, dependencies, and critical-path work.

Use Timeline for a simpler date-based view of tasks. Use WBS Gantt when you need more detailed planning around milestones, dependencies, and critical path.

For dependencies between individual tasks, see Task Dependencies.
