Consult your accountant for specific guidance on capitalizing software development costs.

Question 3

How does the software development process work?

I follow a structured Agile software development lifecycle: 1) Discovery and requirements gathering, 2) Software architecture and planning, 3) Design phase with UI/UX prototypes, 4) Iterative development with regular sprints, 5) Continuous testing and quality assurance, 6) Deployment and launch, 7) Post-launch support and maintenance. This ensures transparency, flexibility, and quality throughout the software development lifecycle.

Question 4

What software development methodologies do you use?

I employ Agile and Scrum methodologies for iterative, collaborative software development. I also practice Lean software development principles to minimize waste and maximize value delivery. This includes regular sprint planning, sprint reviews, and retrospectives to ensure continuous improvement.

Question 5

Will software development be replaced by AI?

Accepted Answer

No, AI will not replace software development or software developers. While AI tools enhance productivity and automate repetitive tasks, software development requires critical thinking, creative problem-solving, architectural decisions, and deep understanding of business requirements that only human developers can provide. I leverage AI tools to increase efficiency while applying human expertise.
