In this article I will relate this metric with concepts from classical mechanics, telling why you should always consider velocity towards your goals instead of going as fast as you can.</p> <p>The objective of this article is not to explain what velocity is. I assume you already know this concept. If you would like a more detailed article about velocity, please let me know in the comments or any other options of <a href="http://waghetti.com/pages/contact/" title="contact">contact</a>.</p> http://waghetti.com/posts/2021/01/delivering-incrementally/ Tue, 19 Jan 2021 00:00:00 -0300 http://waghetti.com/posts/2021/01/delivering-incrementally/ <p>Agile methodologies are based on incremental and iterative product development.
