Let me quickly give an overview on the above parts as I will not be covering them in detail here:
Roles -> Product Owner, Scrum Master, The Team…
Ceremonies -> Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, Sprint Retrospective, Backlog Refinement…
Artifacts -> Product Backlog, Sprint Backlog, Increment…
As I said, this article was only to introduce you to Scrum. My next articles will be little deep-dive and cover details on the above Roles, Ceremonies & Artifacts.
Follow me for updates. Happy learning 😊
