Legacy code projects struggle before coding even begins. Which features are implemented, where they are located, and at what maturity level, is often unclear.

These patterns go beyond merely deciphering the code's functionality. They provide strategies to comprehend the underlying concepts, behaviors, and relationships in the domain.
