The main components of a Gantt chart are tasks, time intervals, and progress bars. Tasks are listed on the vertical axis, representing the work to be done. Time intervals are placed on the horizontal axis, indicating the project timeline. Progress bars span across the time intervals, showing the duration of each task and its current status.
