Craftsmanship

Craftsmanship. A term which was rarely used in connection with software development. Lately, in the Agile world, I hear this term often and it already started to shift my paradigm on many things.

It was discouraging to find out a related manifesto was already in place. This is what the manifesto says:

Not only working software,

but also well-crafted software

Not only responding to change,

but also steadily adding value

Not only individuals and interactions,

but also a community of professionals

Not only customer collaboration,

but also productive partnerships
