As of today, flexible software development methodology, also known as the Agile, became one of the most popular and in-demand in the information technology industry. Instead of traditional and rigid approaches to development, Agile offers an iterative and flexible method making it possible for the development teams to be more efficient and adapt to changes in the project requirements. This article considers the Agile basic principles and practices, and the benefits it could provide to the software development teams.
