WHAT IS AGILE?

Agile is a set of principles and practices for software development and project management that prioritize flexibility, collaboration, and customer satisfaction. The Agile approach is centered around the idea of iterative development, where the project is divided into phases and is developed based on continuous collaboration and improvement. Self-organizing and cross-functional teams collaborate following a cycle of planning, executing, and evaluating the built solutions.

The ultimate value of adopting Agile in software development is that the approach helps teams to faster deliver value and quality, and to respond to change and unpredictability.

Agile was introduced as a response to the traditional, linear project management approaches, such as the Waterfall model, that often led to lengthy development cycles and limited adaptability to changing requirements.

The most popular Agile frameworks are Scrum and Kanban.
