"Refactoring at Scale" by
Maude Lemaire is now part of Understand Legacy Code bookshelf 🎉

I like how it's rooted in reality, with concrete use cases from the trenches at Slack

I wrote an overview of what I learned, so you can answer "Is this book relevant to my situation?" 😉

I will attend MenderCon 2024—a remote conf for people who deal with legacy codebases

📅 May 16
📍 Remote
🎫 Pay what you want (suggested $5)

There will be open-space sessions: you can bring up a topic you want to discuss

Interested? Join us 😉

JavaScript's take on the ultimate question:

["🥚", "🐔"].sort()
// ~> ["🐔", "🥚"]

You're welcome 😉
