#relicss

As a contracting front-end developer and Design Systems consultant, I don't always get to work on new things. Sometimes I work within codebases. Sometimes alongside them. Sometimes these codebases are years and years old. When you dive into these projects, you're not just reading code, you're excavating years of decisions, technological limitations, and creative workarounds from days gone by. Over the last decade, I've called this Front-End Archaeology.
