I am working in a company that owns a website which I find very difficult to coop with, not because of my lack of experience in PHP but due to the fact the code is written in a very old and low quality, written with no OOP.
What I can see in the APP:
- html page ,
- Php Page
- Template
- mysql structured like the Pablo Picasso paintings, no foreign keys, no constraints nothing
I only see code written and rewritten over and over I just myself can't understand how do people mingle in this ocean of codes vomit ? When I tried to contact one of my colleagues to understand more about it, he told me that its taking them more and more time to achieve tasks already emphasizing on the fact that complexity is gradually increasing and they can't do anything anymore because a massive amount of data has been initiated.
has anyone had any similar situation? any advice ? maybe there is a way to fix this chaos ?
Any post would be appreciated !
