Build Stuff 2018

Have you ever worked in a company which has plenty of legacy software built by "other developers". That software seems to be totally unmaintainable and probably needs to be rewritten and as a bonus there are another x applications/system hanging on top of this.
Guess what - It will be same conversation after someone joins your company where you are making this new and shiny software after 5 years.
So what’s the magic - how do we create something that lasts?
The answer is - there is no magic, only hard work and good decisions along the way.
The other important pieces to this puzzle are understanding that this is a moving target and all departments needs to work together to get it right.
In this presentation I will cover the main points that need to be addressed in order to have a software that can evolve and adopt as time passes and that there is no more "release and forget" approach.
