Moving Legacy with AI | Michael Hladky @ enterJS
About the event
Michael Hladky's EnterJS 2026 talk, Moving Legacy with AI, tackles one of the hardest problems in software engineering: moving legacy codebases forward without grinding everything to a halt.

Legacy migrations are often slow, expensive, and difficult to predict. But what happens when AI becomes part of a structured engineering process instead of just another chatbot?
In this session, Michael shares a field-tested approach that helped reduce migration effort by up to 75% through:
๐ค AI context and token strategies
โ๏ธ MCP and orchestration workflows
๐ Systematic evaluation of AI runs
๐ Reproducible migration processes
๐ Practical patterns for large-scale legacy modernization
If you're working with aging codebases and wondering how AI can become a reliable engineering tool, this talk is for you.
