What SDLC Paradigm Did You Use in Your Project? (programming.dev)

Hi everyone! I’m a student currently working on a research activity for our Software Engineering class, and I’d really appreciate your insights. 😊

I’m looking to gather input from software developers, project managers, or engineers about the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) paradigms you've used in your past or current projects.

If you have a few minutes to spare, I’d love to hear your answers to these quick questions:

  1. What type of software did you develop? (e.g., mobile app, enterprise system, game, etc.)

  2. Which software development paradigm did your team follow? (eg. Prototyping Model, Spiral Model, Fourth Generation Techniques (4GT), Waterfall Model Agile Model, V-Shaped Model, Incremental Model, RAD (Rapid Application Development), Feature Driven Development (FDD), Big Bang Model, Scrum, etc)

  3. Why did you choose that particular paradigm? (e.g., client requirement, team familiarity, project scale, etc.)

Your input will be used for academic purposes only, and it would really help me complete this task with real-world insights. Thank you so much in advance!

My company does a mix of scrum and kanban, but its all pretty loose. I suspect its actually very rare to find any of those development models being followed strictly, once you leave uni you'll end up doing whatever the company/team you join does.

Yeah this. Every company I've worked in does 2 week sprints with a kanban to organise tasks but beyond that it's pretty much normal project management; no faddy named models or anything.
