I used Markwhen recently to make an interactive Gantt chart for a proposal to a collaborator and it went swimmingly. (We got the gig!) So, thank you!

For the record, I used the Obsidian plugin to develop, then deployed as static HTML.

I skimmed the documentation and didn't see any reference as to whether Markwhen supports dependencies? I.e. MSProject-style make one event dependent on another task ending or starting.

Did you need/use that functionality?

It doesn't look at task completion but you can base events on other events

Sorry if this is a dumb Q but what took that from Markwhen/down to HTML?
Not a dumb question! Markwhen has a CLI: https://docs.markwhen.com/cli that I used.
Oh I missed the rendering capability. Thanks for the link!
If it could output PNG, it could be adapted as a code block with its own language in org-mode.
