Planning in Agile vs. Waterfall: The key difference lies in the level of detail and upfront commitment. Waterfall involves extensive upfront planning, aiming for a complete and fixed scope before development begins. Agile, on the other hand, embraces iterative development and allows for flexibility and adaptation throughout the project. Planning in Agile is ongoing and adaptive, focusing on short iterations (sprints) with regular reviews and adjustments.
