WHAT A WEEK OF DEVELOPMENT CAN ACHIEVE
A development week is not a unit of measurement for a fixed number of features. Software products differ too greatly in complexity, starting position and technical dependencies for that.
With suitable tasks, however, a coherent application system can emerge within short development cycles: with a real user interface, domain core logic, a data model, visualisation and a solid technical structure.
With complex desktop, real-time or visualisation systems, a week can produce a vertical slice that does not contain every later feature, but holds enough real architecture and functionality to make central product decisions.
Where the technical foundations are already well understood, the scope can reach considerably further.
Where there are research, integration or performance risks, by contrast, clarifying a single critical technical problem can hold the greatest economic value.
