We are uncovering better ways of developing software by doing it and helping others do it. Through this work we have come to value:

 Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
Working software over comprehensive documentation
Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
Responding to change over following a plan

That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.

我們通過身體力行和幫助他人來揭示更好的軟件開發(fā)方式。經(jīng)由這項工作，我們形成了如下價值觀：

 個體與交互 重于 過程和工具
可用的軟件 重于 完備的文檔
客戶協(xié)作   重于 合同談判
響應(yīng)變化   重于 遵循計劃

在每對比對中，后者并非全無價值，但我們更看重前者。
