The Spring Migration continues to be in full swing and it feels a bit like digging away at a mountain in front of me. Ever since this started, I sit down every morning, get the “paperwork” out of the way (including my support duties) and then go over code segments one after another for 5 to 6 hours straight. In a sense, this feels productive. But from a player’s perspective, it obviously isn’t. At the end of the day, everything works just as it did before at best. At worst, I’ve added a few new bugs 
At least all of this isn’t for nothing and I can already reap some of the benefits offered by the more modern versions of the libraries we use: For example, a lot of the data fetching code that I’d had to have written by hand a few years ago can now be auto-generated, cutting down quite a bit on lines-of-code and time required. And no, I am not talking about AI here…just good old code generation in “standard cases”, based on fairly straight-forward rule.
Our code management platform tells me this is the current status of my branch:
Let’s see where this gauge will stand next Monday
