Yes, I have experience working with legacy code. This usually means dealing with a large codebase without sufficient documentation and using outdated technologies or architectural decisions.
In such cases, it is important to:
- Understand the business logic and key dependencies.
- Write tests before making changes to avoid breaking existing functionality.
- Gradually refactor the code to improve readability and maintainability.
For example, I worked on a project where I had to add new functionality to old React code without using modern hooks, while maintaining the application's stability.
