Sangam (pronounced sung-um) means confluence in Hindi - from the Sanskrit samagama. In Extreme Programming, we try to create a confluence of ideas, efforts, and team-spirit to create software that is truly unique - which wouldnt have been possible if it were to be created by a single person. The key practice in Extreme Programming is Pair Programming - whereby two programmers share the same terminal - and program together.

Sangam is a plugin for the Eclipse platform - and the messaging is done on the open-source Kizna Syncshare Messaging Platform. . The plugin allows for shared editing, saving, and running of programs.
