Kanban
Developers should learn Kanban when working in fast-paced, iterative environments where priorities shift frequently, as it provides real-time visibility into work status and helps manage workflow without fixed sprints
Pros
- +It is particularly useful for maintenance teams, support operations, or projects with unpredictable workloads, as it reduces cycle times and improves responsiveness to changes
- +Related to: agile-methodology, scrum
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Planned Development if: You want it is particularly valuable when working with fixed budgets, tight deadlines, or teams that require clear guidance to coordinate efforts effectively, reducing the likelihood of scope creep and rework and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
