+# Createk's Development Pipeline
+
+## Our approach to development
+
+Createk currently operates in a hybridized Kanban/Scrum fashion. What that
+means is that while we don't appoint values to our tickets on the Kanban
+board we still operate in two week sprint blocks
+
+During our Sprint meetings we'll:
+- Start with a Retrospective where we review the previous sprint looking at
+what went well, what could be better, and what actions we can take to improve
+- Move tickets from our Backlog/Planning columns into Planning-Done.
+- Discuss potentially problematic tickets; i.e. blockers to completion, potential
+solutions
+- Sometimes assign specific individuals to tickets if the tickets have a
+particularly high priority; i.e. The tickets are part of a large feature with a
+looming deadline where the developer has a good deal of experience
+
+
+
+### Step 1: Selection
+- Select a ticket from the top of the Planning-Done column (these are
+ranked by highest priority; descending) and assign yourself and anyone
+else working on it with you
+
+### Step 2: Development
+- Commit your changes. Be sure to push often to allow Circle to run your
+newly added tests often to receive feedback from the test suite
+
+### Step 3: Review
+- Create a pull request. Look over the checklist and get members of the team
+to review your work. If the product owner is available try to
+show them the completed work to make sure it meets their expectations
+
+### Step 4: Changes
+- Make the requested changes, if there are any
+
+### Step 5: Merge
+- Merge to Staging
+- Start a new ticket
+
+### Step 6: Test
+- Corporate Rewards manually tests on Staging
+
+### Step 7: Re-work
+- Potential re-work (If necessary, stop work on your newly selected ticket and
+complete the requested changes then move through steps 3 to 6 again)
+
+### Step 8: Deploy
+- See our [Git workflow](http://github.com/CreatekIO/guidelines/blob/master/git_workflow.md)
