Chocolate Driven Development (CDD)

Chocolate Driven Development (CDD) image
CDD, or chocolate-driven development, started in 1992 in Switzerland. The boost in dopamine and serotonin promoted focus, happiness and other mood boosting qualities. While all those working in this methodology were happy, unfortunately, no successful software development projects were actually started, as it wasn't a real computer. There are those, however, who persist with this way of working today and are very happy with the results.
