Manifesto

Manifesto for Agile Software Development


We are uncovering better ways of developing
software by doing it and helping others do it.
Through this work we have come to value:


  • Individuals and interactions,
    over processes and tools
     
  • Working software over
    comprehensive documentation,
     
  • Customer collaboration over
    contract negotiation,
     
  • Responding to change over
    following a plan,
     

That is, while there is value in the items on the right,
we value the items on the left more.
