    Sobre o que é Learning Agile?

    Learning Agile (2015) is a no-nonsense guide to an often misunderstood concept – agile.

Longtime agile practitioners Andrew Stellman and Jennifer Greene don’t see it that way. For them, agile is a great tool, but you have to know how – and when and why – to use it. And that starts with getting a grasp on agile’s underlying principles.
