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.

Using APM tools like NewRelic, Sentry, Datadog, etc to monitor the performance of your application and while you're on it, they can help you identify N+1 queries.

However, ensuring the reliability and performance of your Next.js app is equally crucial. That’s where Sentry comes into play. Combined with Sentry, an industry-leading error monitoring platform, Next.js empowers developers to proactively identify and resolve issues that may arise in their applications. In this article, we’ll explore how to integrate Sentry into your Next.js project for effective error monitoring and performance optimization.

Sentry: Error monitoring for applications, including APIs. Also offers application performance monitoring (APM).

Indeed, webapps are not immune to distribution problems. Wayward and invasive browser extensions are a clear threat, as are 3rd-party dependencies (and their dependencies) loaded at runtime. Which is why companies like https://sentry.io exist. I think the difference is that webapps are "distributable by default" and it takes real work to break this. Versus having local desktop apps which require work to distribute. A potent example of the power of defaults.

Sentry produces nothing of value? You don't value an open source error tracking and performance monitoring platform? https://github.com/getsentry/sentry

> You invent something, and then immediately turn it into a cheap commodity by releasing it for free.

Exactly. A 71-line python script https://github.com/getsentry/sentry/commit/3c2e87573d3bd16f6... was groundbreaking when it came out and the fact that it springboarded into a startup is commendable.
