Explanation

According to the Scrum Guide, the Daily Scrum is a 15-minute event for the Developers to synchronize their work and create a plan for the next 24 hours. It is held every day of the Sprint at the same time and place. The Scrum Master ensures that the event takes place, but does not decide how it is conducted. The Scrum Master also helps the Developers understand the purpose of the Daily Scrum and optimize its value.
