A didactic project that shows how to structure and run a Scrum implementation in practice, with a focus on clarity, flow, and value delivery.
In this project, theory is turned into a practical sequence: problem, backlog, prioritization, sprint, execution, review, and retrospective. The goal is to show, clearly and professionally, how an agile delivery is structured from start to finish.
The starting point is a team that needs to organize demands, prioritize value, and visualize work clearly.
Scrum acts as the main structure, Kanban supports flow visualization, and lightweight prioritization techniques keep execution focused.
The expected result is a small, validatable increment that is easy to demonstrate in a few minutes.
The work starts with a simple scenario and a SMART goal. This keeps the proposal concrete and avoids diving into operational details too early.
Next, epics and user stories are structured using INVEST logic. Each item should be small, negotiable, valuable, and testable.
During prioritization, the backlog is split into Must, Should, Could, and Won't to keep the sprint realistic and value-driven.
During planning, the goal, team capacity, selected items, and main risks are defined before the sprint starts.
During execution, visual columns, work-in-progress limits, and visible blockers are used for the whole team.
During the review, the increment is presented, feedback is gathered, and the retrospective closes the loop with lessons for the next sprint.
Scrum organizes work into sprints and events; Kanban helps visualize flow and keep focus on tasks that are actually in progress.
Problem -> Backlog -> Prioritization -> Sprint -> Execution -> Review -> Retro
These three techniques make planning stronger: a well-defined goal, better stories, and prioritization without overload.
