Principles
Core principles
- The goal is the journey.
- Knowledge is a by-product of every activity of a knowledge worker.
- Documentation is a snapshot of my current state of knowledge in a given context.
- A learning organization mindset (inspired by Peter Senge) — we practice:
- Shared vision (values)
- Mental models (culture)
- Knowledge sharing ("I share knowledge so that we can grow together.")
- Team learning (creating synergies)
- Systems thinking (success is not an accident)
Grading — 75% of the final grade (continuous work)

- Systematic work — ongoing capture of activities and ideas, KNIFEs.
- Project intent and quality — helping others through the project, professional know-how, completeness across SDLC, quality of interim and final outputs.
- Responsibility for the shared final outcome.
- Teamwork and synergy seeking — within the class and within the wider KNIFE ecosystem.

Archívny ročník (2023-2024)
Tento ročník prebiehal na Confluence a Bitbucket. Obsah bol v roku 2026 prenesený na GitHub; zachované sú prezentácie projektov a podporné súbory (obrázky, diagramy, dokumenty). Pôvodná Bitbucket wiki sa neprenáša — slúžila len na zverejnenie projektov študentov cez HTML.
