Abstract:
Legacy code. It's those dirty brownfield applications that no one wants to work on. How do you make sure that your project never becomes one of those dreaded projects? And if you’ve inherited a dirtfield app, how do you turn it back around into a gorgeous greenfield?
The answer to both of these questions may surprise you: seeding your app with good communication artifacts. In this talk, Andrea Goulet, the CEO of Corgibytes, a shop that specializes in working on legacy code bases, will give you specific and immediately actionable ideas to ensure the legacy of your codebases stays as green as possible. You’ll learn how to:
● Avoid interruptions by effectively “seeding” artifacts throughout your work ● Use the ideas of inception layers to talk about your availability ● End the dreaded git blame game
● Create code that continues to provide value years after you write it.
If you’re ready to take your code legacy to the next level, this is one talk you won’t want to miss!
