The document discusses different approaches to agile software development including Scrum, Kanban, Extreme Programming (XP), Lean Startups, and Design Driven Development (D3). It explains that agile is a philosophy focused on individuals, collaboration, adaptability to change, and delivering working software frequently. Specific agile methods then apply this philosophy through practices like test-driven development, daily standups, limiting work in progress, and continuous delivery.

Agile is not a formula,
or a best practice

4. henryjacob.com
It is a philosophy
Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
Working software over comprehensive documentation
Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
Responding to change over following a plan

Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery
of valuable software.
Welcome changing requirements, even late in development. Agile processes harness change for
the customer's competitive advantage.
Deliver working software frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, with a
preference to the shorter timescale.
Business people and developers must work together daily throughout the project.
Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need,
and trust them to get the job done.
The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is
face-to-face conversation.
It is about principles

Working software is the primary measure of progress.
Agile processes promote sustainable development. The sponsors, developers, and users should be
able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely.
Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility.
Simplicity--the art of maximizing the amount of work not done--is essential.
The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams.
At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts its
behavior accordingly.
It is about principles

It is a value system
Respect
Courage
Communication
Feedback
Simplicity
Craftspersonship

Lean thinking
Add Nothing But Value
Eliminate Waste
Center On The People Who Add Value
