Summary

Now that you understand the background of Widget World and its business needs, you can soon get to work utilizing the development techniques that were briefly outlined here.

Rather than follow the regimented waterfall development approach, you can make use of a more flexible approach that highlights quick releases, simple design, a well-tested code-base, a dedication to continuous code improvement, and a means of having constant feedback with access to the customer.

By utilizing this approach, you can produce an application that is capable of delivering business value in the first release, measurable in days and weeks rather than in months and years.
