Legacy Java modernization
A codebase your next hire can run on day one instead of week two.
Taking an ageing Spring or plain Java system and making it maintainable again — without a rewrite and without stopping the business that depends on it.
What's included
- Assessment of the codebase, with a written report you keep either way
- A prioritized remediation plan, ordered by risk rather than by taste
- Dockerized local environment so onboarding stops being tribal knowledge
- Incremental refactoring of the highest-risk areas, with tests added as I go
- Performance work on the endpoints that actually hurt
Process
How working together goes
No surprises, and no long proposal documents that say nothing.
- 01
A call
Twenty minutes. You describe the problem; I tell you whether it is something I have done before. If it isn't, I say so.
- 02
A written scope
What I will build, what I will not, what it depends on, and how long it takes. You get this before committing to anything.
- 03
Milestones you can run
Work lands in increments you can open and try yourself, not in a single delivery at the end. Source lives in your repository from day one.
- 04
Handover that holds
Documentation covering the protocol, the failure modes and the operational quirks — the things that are expensive to rediscover.
