— to see what it does
The Scrum framework is made of three roles, three artifacts (Product Backlog, Sprint Backlog, Increment), and four main events (Planning, Standup, Review, Retro). Click anything above for the details.

Tip: the sprint loop is what makes Scrum work — every 2-3 weeks the team ships something real and gets feedback. Adjust, repeat.
