What is the purpose of the Daily Scrum?

The purpose of the Daily Scrum is to synchronize activities and create a plan for the next 24 hours. This event is a time-boxed meeting that occurs every day and serves as an opportunity for the Development Team to discuss what they accomplished the previous day, what they plan to work on today, and any obstacles they are facing.

This synchronization is crucial for maintaining a cohesive workflow among team members, allowing them to adjust their plans based on the latest information and collaborate more effectively to meet the Sprint Goal. The focus is primarily on facilitating teamwork and alignment, ensuring that everyone is on the same page and can move forward collectively for the next day's work.

Engaging in this brief meeting helps to foster communication and transparency within the team, enabling quicker decision-making and problem resolution, while reinforcing commitment to the Sprint's goals.
