There are three things you can do with legacy code.
|
|
|
|
Refactor it, remove it or replace it.
|
|
|
|
You can refactor it to make it easier to maintain and change in the future.
|
|
|
|
If it's not needed, you can remove it.
|
|
|
|
If it's not used, there's no need to keep it.
|
|
|
|
Or you can replace it with something else.
|
|
|
|
There isn't one right answer and the correct approach will depend on the situation and objective.
|
|
|
|
In a future email, I'll give some examples of how I refactor legacy code.
