Line Chart
A Line Chart is a graphical representation that displays information as a series of data points connected by straight lines.
It is useful for tracking changes over periods of time or comparing different sets of related data such as time entries, tasks, and subtasks.
Line Charts help users monitor trends, performance, and project progress through continuous data visualization.
The chart highlights patterns in project timelines, logged hours, and task updates.
