amanda_loddenOne of the hardest part about the coding that I need to get done is that it's a live system. Sometimes, I can copy a live page, edit it, and then put it back into place when I've finished, but any time I'm changing the framework code, it gets more difficult.
Unfortunately, the framework is really crappy code. The good news is that I've gotten a lot better at programming since I started. The bad news is that there's a LOT of structural work that needs to be done before I can do a lot of the upgrades that need doing.
The best way around this, of course, is to clean up the old code when no one else is using the system-- evenings and weekends. I bet you can guess how thrilled I am about that.
Today, however, I got a good six hours of effort in, and some serious progress made on the structural code. It's still a bit of a house of cards, but it's getting better and better.
