LeSS (Large-Scale Scrum) is a framework focused on applying the principles, elements, and purpose of Scrum in a large-scale context. Less is Scrum applied to multiple teams building a large product.
Like Scrum, LeSS hits the sweet spot between defined concrete elements and empirical process control.
LeSS offers:
. Principles: The LeSS principles provide the basis to find answers as to how best to apply LeSS in your specific context.
. Less Rules: Less rules define what is LeSS (and what isn’t) and they provide a concrete framework for applying LeSS.
. Guides: Guides are tips and recommendations for adopting LeSS.
. Experiments: Hundreds of tried experiments that a team can pick and choose from to try in their context.
