utviklingsmetode
Utviklingsmetode, also known as development methodology, refers to a structured approach used in software development and other fields to design, develop, and maintain systems, applications, or products. These methodologies provide a framework for planning, executing, and controlling projects, ensuring that they are completed on time, within budget, and to the required quality standards. Common development methodologies include Agile, Scrum, Waterfall, and Lean. Agile, for example, emphasizes flexibility, customer collaboration, and iterative progress, with work being divided into small, manageable tasks. Waterfall, on the other hand, follows a linear and sequential approach, with each phase of the project completing before the next begins. The choice of methodology depends on the project's specific requirements, the team's expertise, and the organization's culture. Effective use of a development methodology can significantly improve project outcomes, enhance team productivity, and ensure that the final product meets stakeholder expectations.
