What is Agile?
• From Wikipedia:
• “Agile software development is a group of
  software development methods based on
  iterative and incremental development,
  where requirements and solutions evolve
  through collaboration between
  self-organizing, cross-functional teams.”
Variations on Agile
• Light Agile Development (LAD)
• Extreme Programming
• Rapid Application Development
 (technically a predecessor method)
• “FrAgile”
Where does Content fit?
• Ideally, you're in from the beginning: at the
  equivalent of requirements development,
  usually called the User Story.
• Content developers should be part of the
  scrum and at stand-ups
Advantages
• Inherently iterative
• Teams are cross-functional—less
  resistance to the presence of Content
• Can be easier to created embedded
  documentation
• Some variations are highly user-centric
Challenges
• MUST practice minimalism
• Experiencing working software before
  writing
• Team burnout
