The History of Agile Software Development

THE HISTORY OF AGILE

From the early contributions of the Toyota Productions System to the ongoing and ever-evolving agile scaling methods, agile software development has been a long time in the making.

We attempted here to include some of the most significant contributions and early foundations of what we all know today as the Agile Mindset.

The fact remains that there are many events, happenings and milestones that have comprised the creation and permeation of this way of building software - truly too many to list. We commit to releasing new, updated, expanded, and shinier versions of this document in the near term.
