Scheduling & the Gantt chart: * Interactive Gantt chart rendered on Canvas, with drag & drop (including vertical drag to reorder or reparent tasks) and zoom * Critical Path Method (CPM) with automatic critical-path and float calculation * Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) with collapsible task groups * Spreadsheet-style table view for quick bulk editing * Construction-specific calendars: holidays, seasonal shutdowns, inspection milestones, phasing * Built-in report view with a live, configurable print preview Resource libraries: * Resources and calendars live in a shared, project-independent library instead of being copied into every project file * Assigning a resource from the library materializes it into the project, with per-item provenance stamps showing what it came from and whether it has since drifted from the library version * Share a resource library across a whole team or company, and reuse the same equipment, crews, and calendars across many projects File formats & interoperability: * IFC 4.3 native file format — open and save directly in the buildingSMART standard, so a project file is a standard-compliant IFC model, not a proprietary blob * Import/export for CSV, Microsoft Project, and Primavera P6 AI assistant (MCP): * Open Planner Studio can expose itself as an MCP server, so an AI assistant (such as Claude Code) can read and edit the open plan directly — creating and rescheduling tasks, wiring up dependencies, managing resources and calendars — instead of you doing it by hand * Built-in safety controls: pause the assistant, put it in read-only mode, automatic backups before AI-driven changes, and a visible activity log of everything it did * You decide when it's on — the AI assistant and its MCP server are opt-in and off by default Also included: * An extension system for adding custom ribbon buttons and behavior * 14 languages, including right-to-left support for Arabic and Persian Open Planner Studio is free and open source (LGPL-3.0-or-later), part of the OpenAEC Foundation family of applications, and built with Tauri for a small, native footprint. --- ## Install open-planner-studio on your Linux distribution Choose your Linux distribution to get detailed installation instructions.
