Sprint 1 — Thursday

Sprint 1 is the busiest and most confusing time in your Voyage. There’s a lot to learn and get done. So much so that it can feel like you are “drinking from a firehose”!

A Project Backlog transforms your ideas into a tangible set of features and actions that helps change confusion into clarity.

This backlog is the set of steps the team follows to complete your minimum viable product (MVP). It’s continually evolving because Agile methodology, unlike waterfall methodologies, divides the project into iterable Sprints that are focused on refining, designing, developing, testing, and deploying small units of functionality.

Each unit of functionality is built on the functionality deployed in the prior Sprint. Agile lets the team focus on “doing the right thing at the right time”. Refactoring is a byproduct of this since you’ll be continuously adding and improving.

Reaching your goal depends on treating the backlog as an “evergreen” document you refine as new problems and features are discovered.
