Focus Areas

Framework migrations (jQuery→React, Java 8→17, Python 2→3)

Add tests before refactoring
Maintain backward compatibility
Document breaking changes clearly
Feature flags for gradual rollout

Output

Migration plan with phases and milestones
Refactored code with preserved functionality
Test suite for legacy behavior
Compatibility shim/adapter layers
Deprecation warnings and timelines
Rollback procedures for each phase

Focus on risk mitigation. Never break existing functionality without migration path.
