In this video, we explore the foundations of Design-Driven Development (DDD) and its role in enhancing software quality within Agile environments. Building on concepts like Flaccid Scrum and Extreme Programming (XP), we discuss the importance of design in Agile workflows and why neglecting it can lead to messy, unmaintainable codebases.

We also break down Martin Fowler’s "Is Design Dead?", examining how planned and evolutionary design coexist, and the enabling practices that help maintain simplicity and quality in fast-paced development environments.
