## Key Features

The key features of Agile and Non-Agile Framework are: 

### Agile Framework

An agile environment is a workplace or project setting that uses agile approaches for project management and software development. Agile cultures value flexibility, cooperation, and iterative development in order to adapt rapidly to changes and deliver high-quality products.

1. Sprint Planning and Management
2. User Story and Backlog Management
3. Kanban Boards
4. Scrum Meetings and Reports

#### How to configure Agile Framework?

Agile framework would be the default framework of SimplifyQA. The framework would be as shown below

### Non-Agile Framework

A non-agile environment, often known as a traditional or waterfall environment, takes a linear and sequential approach to project management and software development. This method is distinguished by extensive prior planning and a structured progression through distinct phases.

1. Waterfall Project Planning
2. Task and Resource Management
3. Gantt Charts
4. Documentation and Approval Workflows

#### How to configure Non-Agile Framework?

Non-Agile framework can be configured based on the structure or approach of certain projects and software development. Based on the workflow of your projects configure the environment accordingly.

If you want to modify the framework and configure it according to your need, Layout can be modified in [Configure Page Layout](/admin-controls-and-configurations/manage-projects-and-users/configure-page-layout.md) for a particular project.
