Sprint backlog defines the what, why, and how of what product value will be delivered in a period.

Sprint goal defines why, included tasks are the what, and the team’s plan to deliver the increments is the how. This should be readily available to stakeholders and detailed enough to see progress. This artifact commits to the sprint goal.rS2
