XP Values

Communication

We care about dynamic, fast, synchronous communication.

Simplicity

It’s easy to build a complex mess of software. It’s hard to build simple software.

Feedback

Sofware is best built through a process of learning, not up-front planning. Feedback enables us to know what works and what doesn’t, and allows us to use those learnings to adjust future action.

Courage

It takes courage to do the right thing, to choose the hard thing over the easy thing, to tell stakeholders difficult truth, to take calculated risks, to ship a Lean yet unfinished slice of your code to production.

Respect

We need to respect each other to give and receive effective feedback, to communicate kindly, and to collaborate fully.
