Illuminating Legacy Applications
Inheriting a legacy application can be a very intimidating position to find yourself in. Being constantly
haunted by the decisions of the "Original Developer" can lead any rational person to the conclusion that a
ground up rewrite is the only way out. But rewrites are anything but rational, they're the wrong decision
almost every time so why take the risk?
This talk will offer attendees a practical approach to incrementally integrating the various Illuminate packages
from the Laravel Framework into virtually any legacy application all the while keeping it live and in production.
Learn to take that hostile, embarrassing application from a mess of functions, SQL injections and global state to
something you can actually be proud of.
