Legacy Code Architecture
This training combines theory with practice, providing tools for daily work on code and architecture quality.
Ideal for teams that…
Solid backend and architecture — patterns proven in production.
Effective management of code and architecture quality—understand concepts like SOLID, KISS, DRY, and YAGNI to design better solutions.
Effective strategies for managing legacy code—learn when to choose refactoring, the Strangler Pattern, or rewriting to reduce technical debt.
Practical refactoring techniques—identify issues in code and apply refactoring at the method, class, module, and architecture levels.
Optimizing team collaboration—discover ways to minimize conflicts when introducing changes and making key decisions.
What we actually do
- · Introduction Software Quality vs. Code Quality Legacy Code vs. Technical Debt Why does code quality decline?
- · Strategies for Managing Legacy Architecture Continuing the current approach Continuous Refactoring Strangler Pattern Rewrite How to make decisions?
- · Prevention Overview of techniques Cost vs. benefit How to handle challenges Conflicts vs. decision-making
- · Software Development vs. Code Quality Composition Over Inheritance Data Model vs. Domain Model Domain Model vs. Anemic Domain Model SOLID KISS YAGNI DRY
- · Overview of Selected Programming Patterns Creational Patterns Behavioral Patterns Structural Patterns Being Pattern Happy
- · Software Development vs. Architecture Quality Architecture Decision Record Architecture Testing Low Coupling High Cohesion How to choose the right architecture?
- · Refactoring What is refactoring? When (not) to refactor?
- · Preparing for Refactoring Edit and Pray Cover and Modify Implementation-Oriented Tests Testing modified code Testing vs. compromises in code
- · Code Refactoring How to identify the problem? Refactoring methods Refactoring classes and dependencies Refactoring modules
