How do you define legacy code?<\/p>\n\n
Is it code written by previous Developers who worked on the codebase?<\/p>\n\n
Is it code you wrote last week or last month?<\/p>\n\n
Is it code for features everyone no longer uses?<\/p>\n\n
Is it the \"old\" part of the application that no one wants to work on?<\/p>\n\n
It is any code that's not nice to work on or difficult to change?<\/p>\n\n
Is it code written with different conventions to your current ones or in a different style?<\/p>\n\n
Is it any code that doesn't have automated tests or wasn't written with test-driven development?<\/p>\n\n
Is it code built with outdated tooling or frameworks (like CSS libraries) that were popular then but have since been replaced by something newer?<\/p>\n\n
These are just some of the potential definitions I can think of.<\/p>\n\n
The term \"legacy code\" and others, such as \"technical debt\", often mean different things.<\/p>\n\n
