1. Support Agile Manifesto
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.

Principles behind the Agile ManifestoWe follow these principles:
Our highest priority is to satisfy the customerthrough 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.
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.

Regardless of what we discover today, we understand and truly believe that
everyone did the best job they could, given what they knew at the time, their
skills and abilities, the resources available, and the situation at hand.

That is a bad idea
I want my idea to be chosen
What do they mean by that?
I don’t understand it
Will it help me?
