Agile Manifesto

Agile Manifesto is a

document that sets out the key values and principles behind the Agile philosophy, published in February 2001, and is the work of 17 software development practitioners

Agile Values

  1. Individuals and interactions over processes and tools. - People and interactions are more important and come before processes and tools.

  2. Working software over comprehensive documentation - Documentation is important, but the focus should be on delivering working software to your customers.

  3. Customer collaboration over contract negotiation. - Focus on continuous development with an eye for feedback with your customers.

  4. Responding to change over following a plan- Be flexible and change direction when necessary.

Agile Principles

  2. Welcome changing requirements, even in late development.

  3. Deliver working software frequently (weeks rather than months)

  4. Close, daily cooperation between business people and developers

  5. Projects are built around motivated individuals, who should be trusted

  6. Face-to-face conversation is the best form of communication (co-location)

  7. Working software is the primary measure of progress

  8. Sustainable development, able to maintain a constant pace

  9. Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design

  10. Simplicity—the art of maximizing the amount of work not done—is essential

  11. Best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams

  12. Regularly, the team reflects on how to become more effective, and adjusts accordingly

Feedback is

information about reactions to a product, a person's performance of a task, etc. which is used as a basis for improvement. -- Oxford Languages
