Agile Development

Agile development is a flexible and iterative approach to software development that emphasizes collaboration, customer feedback and rapid delivery of functional software. Instead of following a linear, fixed plan, Agile breaks projects into smaller units called iterations or sprints, allowing teams to adapt to changing requirements and continuously improve. Core principles include cross-functional teamwork, frequent releases, continuous testing and stakeholder involvement. Popular Agile frameworks include Scrum, Kanban, and XP (Extreme Programming). Agile development accelerates time-to-market, improves product quality and fosters responsiveness in dynamic business environments.
