What is Timezylla?
Timezylla is a visual project planning tool with two core features: Timeline and Canvas. Timeline gives you professional Gantt charts, schedules, and milestone tracking. Canvas gives you a spatial board for cards, diagrams, and freeform planning.
Use them separately or together — embed timelines into canvases for full project context in one view.
Your first timeline
Open Timeline from the sidebar. Click '+ New Timeline' or pick a template from the Template Picker to get started in seconds.
Add swimlanes (categories like Design, Engineering, Marketing), then add tasks within each swimlane — set names, dates, priority, and assignee. Add milestones for key dates. Draw dependencies between tasks. Toggle Critical Path to see which tasks can't slip without delaying the project.
Your first canvas
Open Canvas from the sidebar. Click '+ New Canvas' to start with a blank infinite board.
Add cards and draw connections between them. Insert shapes, text blocks, or images. Use auto-layout to create mind maps, flowcharts, or org charts. Embed an existing timeline for schedule context. Pan and zoom freely — the canvas is infinite.
Make it yours
Timezylla now uses the Phoenix interface everywhere, with light and dark variants for different working conditions.
Use the theme toggle to switch between Phoenix Light and Phoenix Dark. Your choice applies instantly and persists across sessions.
Desktop or web
