1. Waterfall Methodology
2. Agile Methodology
3. Scrum
4. Kanban
5. Lean Methodology
7. Spiral Methodology

Why Scrum over other Project Management Methodologies¶

Scrum is considered one of the most effective project management methodologies for app development because it supports flexibility, iterative development, continuous testing, and rapid adaptation to change. Unlike traditional approaches such as the Waterfall model, Scrum divides development into short, manageable cycles called sprints, allowing teams to build, test, review, and improve the application continuously.

In app development, requirements often evolve as developers receive feedback from users and stakeholders. Scrum accommodates these changes efficiently by allowing adjustments after every sprint without disrupting the entire project. This makes it superior to rigid methodologies where changes are costly and difficult to implement once development has begun.

Scrum is particularly better because it provides:
1. Flexibility and Adaptability
2. Faster Delivery of Functional Features
3. Continuous Testing and Quality Assurance
4. Strong Stakeholder Collaboration
5. Better Risk Management

For the development of this project, Scrum is especially appropriate because this project is complex, healthcare-focused, user-sensitive, and likely to evolve during development.

This system involves multiple interconnected modules such as:

• Patient Module
• Doctors Module
• Caregivers Module
• System administrators Module
