How to apply Agile on your solo gigs

How to apply Agile on your solo gigs

Have you ever been in a situation where you had to develop alone? Have you started a side project and didn't go well? Agile methodologies always revolve around teams; their interactions and ceremonies, but rarely mention what you should do on a solo gig. Could applying agile practices save the project? Could you apply agile while you are working in a solo capacity?

During my journey, I share the pain with you. I have started many side-projects and worked on many solo projects. It wasn't easy to apply Agile and focus on delivery. Yet, while focusing on success, I found my way to Agilify my solo gigs and discovered why my side-projects were not successful. Through many gigs and amplifying the feedback and it helped me delivering better and faster with great success.

By the end of the session, you will have the hard-learned lessons that will make your solo or side project much easier and more fun. Despite not being an Agile coach, I'm a developer with the right experience who could tell you how to Agilify any solo-project. I will share with you my way of applying Agile on your solo project and backed by some scars from the field.
