Giới thiệu
The Waterfall Methodology mind map template provides a structured overview of the classic sequential software development lifecycle, covering all six phases from Requirement Gathering through Operation. This template is widely used by project managers, software engineers, and IT teams to plan and communicate linear project workflows. Key nodes include 'Requirement Gathering', 'Analysis', 'Design', 'Coding', 'Testing', and 'Operation', each representing a distinct phase with clear handoffs. The template offers a concise, visual reference for understanding dependencies and milestones in a Waterfall project. With its straightforward layout, it serves as both a planning tool and a cheat sheet for stakeholders new to the methodology.
