Legacy code and what to do with it - with Michael Feathers
Software Engineering Unlocked - A podcast by Michaela Greiler
Categories:
In this episode, I talk to Michael Feathers. Michael is the author of the super-popular book “working effectively with legacy code”. He is also the founder and director of R7K Research and Conveyance, a company that helps engineering teams with their software and organization design. Recently, Michael also joined Globant as Chief Architect. We talk about: - legacy code and how to deal with it - how systems almost feel like living organisms - how we are on a journey with our code, and why it’s so important to care for it, - how legacy code is the result of an organization where engineers turn faster (leave the company/team) than the code churns.
