Insert the roadmap planner macro

Create simple, visual timelines that are useful for planning projects, software releases and much more with the Roadmap macro.

Roadmaps are made up of: 

  • bars to indicate phases of work 

  • lanes to differentiate between teams, products or streams

  • markers to highlight important dates and milestones 

  • a timeline showing months or weeks.

You can provide more information about items on your roadmap by linking a bar to a page.
