Based on the ReSharper reference you've got tunnel vision for .Net apps. Now do that with a bloated Rails code base. Or some other dynamic programing language.

Based on the ReSharper reference you've got tunnel vision for .Net apps.
Now do that with a bloated Rails code base. Or some other dynamic programing language. It's not even remotely that simple.
You sure that view isn't being rendered by something else? Are you sure that API endpoint -- which is using that weird decorator, which is using that legacy property, which is relying on that outdated library -- isn't being used by a client?
- olavk 9y agoI mentioned ReSharper because the article is about a rewrite of a .net project. But if you have a large bloated code base in a dynamic language and no tests then you are definitely in deep trouble. A rewrite is not going to help you with that though, you will just end up the same place again.
- joekrill 9y agoYou would need 100% test coverage to be certain you're not going to break something, though. And that's generally unheard of.
