Abstract
Flow-based software development (FSD, a.k.a. lean, pull-based, or kanban) is attractive in certain types of software development projects, e.g. maintenance projects. This experience report shows one project team’s attempt at moving from a timebox-based development process (scrum) to a flow-based process.
