Roadmap maker

Now, Next and Later — or quarters, if your organisation insists. Items carry a status and an owner label, though the label is just text: there are no accounts here to assign anything to.

Building one

From blank canvas to finished diagram

  1. 1Pick a layout. Now/Next/Later ages better than dates you will have to defend.
  2. 2Add items with a status. Idea, planned, in progress, done, parked.
  3. 3Drag items between columns as reality intervenes.
  4. 4Change layout later — items remap positionally rather than being orphaned.

Where it helps

Good uses

  • Product planning

    The honest version, where Later means Later.

  • Stakeholder updates

    One page beats a status meeting.

  • Team priorities

    Makes visible what is not being done.

  • Personal development

    The same shape works for a year of your own.

Questions

Asked often

Can I assign items to people?
No. The owner field is a text label. DiagramDock has no accounts, no user directory and no notifications, so it would be dishonest to call it assignment.
What happens if I switch layout?
Items remap positionally — the first column maps to the first, and so on. Nothing is orphaned.
Are there dependencies or Gantt bars?
No. This is a roadmap, not a project plan. A timeline may suit you better if dates are the point.
Is it shared with my team?
Not by DiagramDock. Export it and send the file, or present it from this device.
