## **Understanding the Agile Manifesto and Its Principles** The Agile Manifesto that kicked off the whole movement is relatively short. The entire text is [here](https://agilemanifesto.org/). It says: _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._ ![[amux-twelve-principles-behind-the-agile-manifesto 1.pdf|amux-twelve-principles-behind-the-agile-manifesto 1.pdf]] ![[Untitled 30 1 1.png|Untitled 30 1 1.png]] In 2016, a mere 15 years after the Agile Manifesto came out, Deloitte Consulting released this diagram called The Agile Landscape. ![[Untitled 1 1 1.png|Untitled 1 1 1.png]] ![[Untitled 2 1 1.png|Untitled 2 1 1.png]]
