What is Agile?

Definitions for cocktail party credibility. Helping you sound like you know what you’re talking about.

Agile is not a technology or even a methodology. It is a way of viewing software development through a lens of complexity science. It favors collaboration, conversation and adaptability over rigid plans and structures. There are many Agile methodologies and technologies that have been developed but Agile itself is a philosophical framework.
