Manifesto for Software Craftsmanship
As my good friend, Rick Garibay blogs, we still need to raise the bar.
"Unfortunately, we’ve also learned that too many individuals and shops have given Agile Software Development a bad name by using it as a fig leaf to hide behind delivering crappy software and calling it agile, further setting back software engineering as a mature discipline.
As a result, our very own Bill of Rights has been born. The Manifesto for Software Craftsmanship is founded on the original Manifesto but raises the bar to eliminate any ambiguity around the expectations of professional software engineers to not only produce working software, but ensuring it is well designed. Not merely reactively responding to change, but strategically partnering with the business to proactively add value while building a community of professionals that can teach and learn from one another."
