They
developers have been asking: What do we need?
What can we do better? What can
we let go of?
Using Agile
development model where they release a minimally viable product with enough
features for early users and an environment to capture feedback for future
development. Agile allows them to
release new features frequently, paying attention to technical excellence and
good design. If you don’t see your
favorite features, it may still be coming.
Old features may still be tweaked and improved.
