I can Transform Your Legacy Codebase into a Valuable Asset

Hello. I am a consultant specializing in old and poorly documented code bases. I have been writing code for over two decades and have worked with over a dozen languages including: Python, Rust, golang, C, Java, Javascript, Typescript, Haskell, and Elm. I can dive into an unknown and poorly documented code base, document it, write tests and provide professional on-boarding videos to get your team up to speed. I provide comprehensive training and documentation to ensure your team can effectively maintain and enhance your legacy codebase long after our engagement is over. I can also diagnose, reproduce, and fix hard to understand bugs in complex systems. By bringing old code bases up to modern standards I can help you harvest the valuable IP assets you already have, driving new growth and stabilizing the technologies upon which existing revenue streams rely.

I work with companies of all sizes, from startups to established enterprises, who are looking to modernize their legacy codebases and improve their technology stack.

With my help, I can transform a stagnant legacy product into a proven technology which you can believe in and sell.

Past projects include:

- Updating and documenting a legacy telecom diagnostics system which processes hundreds of gigabytes of Netscoute data every day

- Upgrading [django-helpdesk](https://github.com/django-helpdesk/django-helpdesk) to use class based views and performing a security audit on accessible endpoints

- Migrating a mid sized organizations server infrastructure from a diverse set of hosts: EC2, Heroku, VPSes to a unified kuberentes cluster, implementing a fully automated and rollback friendly CI/CD system.

- Maintaining, developing and administering a large Django application used for a bike to work event

- Design and implementation of the POSIX device subsystem for Docker 1.0

- Diagnosing a critical and hard to reproduce bug in Elm-lang's runtime.

SEEKING WORK, Tennessee, United States

Remote: Yes

I'm a full-stack, JavaScript/Node.js developer and designer. I'm the creator of the Joystick JavaScript framework [1], Push deployment service [2], and Mod CSS framework [3].

I also have experience with MongoDB, PostgreSQL, and MariaDB (limited but competent) and devops (K8s + Docker and bare-metal linux admin, the latter preferred for simplicity/stability).

Currently looking to take on clients who are open to using Joystick, Push, and Mod to design and develop their app. Because it's still at a pre-release version, I'm willing to work out deals around pricing to get some more test-cases under my belt. Ideal client is a solopreneur w/ funding or entrepreneur with previous experience + funding. Open to working with startups (early or established), but only on greenfield projects where use of Joystick is ok.

There is. I was frustrated by all of the chaos and built a solution [1]. Not too far of from an RC1 and then a 1.0 (which is being done slowly so I can freeze APIs and avoid the typical JS rug pulls).

I've been (slowly) writing a new type of OSS license around this exact concept so it's easier to (legally) stop LLMs hoovering up IP [1] (under "derivative works not permitted").

Joystick [1] will let you go. No Stockholm syndrome. No lotion in the basket.

If you share the sentiment of the author and want to get on the road to recovery, I submit Joystick [1]. I had similar frustrations to this and decided to do something about it [2].

[2] Please give it an honest a look and save the XKCD "muh standards" comic and accompanying snark for after you've taken it for a spin.
