The 'types' object consists of the "type programmatic name": "type identifier" pairs:

• The type programmatic name doesn't affect anything. The only purpose of it is to make the work with types more readable.
• The type identifier is stored in the database. It must be unique within the types' object. If required, the type identifier can be changed to any desirable value:

  {"task":0,"project":1,"milestone":2}

The expected types are:

• task - (string | number) - the name of the task type.
• project - (string | number) - the name of the project type.
• milestone - (string | number) - the name of the milestone type.
• placeholder - (string | number) - the name of the placeholder type.
• [typeName: string] - (string | number | undefined) - name of the custom type.

Gantt will use the lightbox depending on the task type:

types: {
    'task':'task',            // a lightbox for reqular tasks
    'project':'project',      // a lightbox for project tasks
    'milestone':'milestone'   // a lightbox for milestones
}
