#remote, #nomeetings, #noestimates, #nobacklog
The #remote, #nomeetings, #noestimates, #nobacklog recent trends tend to disrupt the classic approach to software development. In this talk, we explore this space also based on my own experience of working with teams to build projects that rely on all these.
Can #remote, #nomeetings, #noestimates, #nobacklog really work? What if we employ them at the same time? If we look at the open-source space, we see that we indeed can build highly successful and innovative projects while working completely remotely, rely almost exclusively on asynchronous communication, rely on no estimates and even no real backlog.
What does that mean for the enterprise? At the very least, we should accept that these are not a fad, and we should not equate them with lack of engineering. Instead, we should look at successful examples and learn from them. In this talk, we do exactly that. We go through concrete examples and observe the implications on the way we work and on the systems we can build.
Zero fluff.
