Abstract
Agile approach to software development provided a good alternative for heavyweight traditional methods. However, it has its drawbacks, that are discussed more and more often, such as: inefficiency in large teams and projects, difficulty in accurate task estimation, lack of fully defined requirements at the beginning of the project, or being “overly extreme” with its principles and practices. The paper presents the new hybrid method in agile approach, which improves shortcomings of the chosen methodologies. Additionally, a tool for supporting project creation using the proposed method in agile approach is created.
