title: Agile development from a front end developer perspective
body: <p>I have recently joined an Agile software enginerring consultancy as their sole front end developer.</p>
  
  <p>It appears to me that one of the features of the Agile process is that you don't forward invest in features but the way I am being asked to work is to code everything up front thus creating a lot of forward investment.  This has lead to a lot of separation from the rest of the team and a lot of pressure being placed on me delivering features for the server side guys.</p>
  
  <p>I am having difficulty finding the fit between front end development and the Agile process and was wondering if anyone had similar experiences and how they dealt with them?</p>
  
  <p>It would be interesting to get another perspective on this.  I am not moaning as I am used to working like this (I come from an agency background) but it appears as though these Agile experts don't know how to make it work with front end development.</p>
