Definition

In the last few decades, Agile has become the most prominent  approach for modern day Product Development. However, it’s core values are often misrepresented and abused. This is such a commonplace practice, that there is an official name for it aka ‘Fragile’ (or frAgile). It’s meant as a warning shot for developers to handle their software product with care, else it’s crash and burn and cause detrimental impact to the entire team.

Elements like Technical Debt, and teams consistently carrying over their work on to the next sprint, Product Manager/ Leader who is quitting, or any miscommunications with customers etc. makes a Software product ‘Fragile’, and must be avoided at all costs.
