Legacy systems is probably the dirtiest and most reviled work in tech. After all at my job in Booking.com for the last 3 years I have mostly worked on projects which fall under that so fashionable term ‘digital transformation’. However, while working with other developers, I often find a desire to start afresh to avoid the complexity of legacy systems without attempting to contemplate why that complexity exists in the first place.
