Joe's career has been filled with legacy projects he's been tasked with bringing into the modern PHP world. He'll share experiences specifically with refactoring a Kohana framework project and the steps his team is taking to modernize the code base while introducing new features and continuing to deliver releases for their customers. Join us as we learn about dragging old legacy projects into the future of modern PHP development without much kicking and screaming.

Fantastic tips and great overall talk. The QA was just as helpful!

Very nice very useful talk. With real-life examples which I liked.
My only hope that people stop doing legacy PHP one day and we won't need that advice anymore )

This talk was cool because it walked through actual examples of what we shouldn’t be doing and if we’ve done those things already, how to course correct.

Good game plan and resources.

This talk provided me with answers to an issue I've been looking at for a couple of years. Thank you for suggesting an achievable path that preserves the current investment but allows the adoption of new technology.

Well delivered talk -- the examples helped make the theoretical refactoring much more concrete.
