product development in 2016: f@$! it, ship it
TRANSCRIPT
So how exactly do we build our product?
Consider the old approach: the classic “Waterfall”.
Great for airplanes, not for SMB software.
So how do we do it harder, better, faster, stronger
Science!
JIRA, enter stage right.
Takeaways● “Waterfall” describes the old-fashioned approach of planning everything
in advance and then building it all in sequence.
● In contrast, “Agile” describes a method of building through small, constant, and rapid iteration.
● The general philosophy is “a good product in market is better than a great product in development”.
● Agile done well does NOT mean there is no vision nor plan for the future.
● Agile as an approach can work for every department, not just dev.
