About

Working with legacy code is one of the most common — and challenging — tasks in software development.

“Understanding & Extending Legacy Code with Copilot” focuses on how AI copilots can help developers navigate, comprehend, and safely extend existing codebases. This session demonstrates how Copilot can assist in explaining complex logic, identifying dependencies, suggesting refactors, and accelerating feature additions without breaking existing functionality.

Through practical scenarios and examples, attendees will learn how to use Copilot to reduce onboarding time, lower the risk of changes, and improve confidence when working with unfamiliar or poorly documented code. The session also covers best practices for validating AI-generated suggestions and maintaining code quality in legacy systems.

Ideal for developers maintaining long-lived applications who want smarter ways to work with the code they already have.
