Understanding Agile
Welcome to the first chapter of your journey into mastering Agile! Whether you're new to this methodology or looking to deepen your understanding, this course will provide you with the knowledge and tools needed to implement Agile practices effectively.
What is Agile?
First, let's discuss what Agile actually is.
Agile methodologies break projects into smaller, manageable units called iterations or sprints, allowing teams to deliver incremental value and adapt to feedback rapidly.
History and Evolution of Agile
The Agile methodology has its roots in the early 1990s when software developers began seeking better ways to manage projects and deliver software. Traditional project management approaches, like Waterfall, often led to projects that were over budget, delayed, or did not meet customer needs.
In 2001, a group of 17 software developers met in Snowbird, Utah, to discuss lightweight development methods. This meeting resulted in the creation of the Agile Manifesto, which outlines the core values of Agile.
Among these developers were Ken Schwaber and Jeff Sutherland, who conceived Scrum in the early 1990s. Scrum is an Agile framework, which we will discuss later in the course, that emphasizes iterative progress, team collaboration, and adaptability, and has become a cornerstone of Agile practices.
