Spiral Model (alternative model)

The Spiral Model is a software development approach that combines iterative design with risk management. Imagine developing a product in repeated cycles or "spirals," where each cycle involves planning, designing, building, and evaluating. After each loop, risks are identified and addressed, allowing the project to adapt to changing needs or issues. This approach helps manage uncertainty and promotes continuous improvement, making it suitable for complex projects where requirements evolve over time. It's like taking multiple passes at refining a project, ensuring potential problems are caught early while progressing steadily toward the final product.
