What is scrum?

 Scrum is a framework that enables teams to deliver value in complex and uncertain environments. Scrum is based on the agile manifesto, which values individuals and interactions, working software, customer collaboration, and responding to change. Scrum consists of three roles (Product Owner, Scrum Master, and Developers), five events (Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, Sprint Retrospective, and Sprint), and three artifacts (Product Backlog, Sprint Backlog, and Increment). Scrum teams work in short iterations called Sprints, where they plan, execute, and deliver a potentially releasable product increment. Scrum teams inspect and adapt their process and product continuously, using empirical feedback and data. Scrum teams are self-organized, meaning they decide how to best accomplish their work, and cross-functional, meaning they have all the skills needed to create a product increment.
