Dear Jan
I'm delighted to say that my new book, Migrating RPG code to Modern Languages, reached number 4 in the "Best Sellers in RPG Programming" on Amazon on 30 October. Whether you’re a CTO exploring long-term options, an engineering manager tasked with transformation, or a developer navigating a legacy system, this book offers clear explanations, practical strategies, and honest advice grounded in experience.
It's available to buy on Gumroad and Amazon. The Kindle version is €/$19.99 and print is around $39 depending on location.
The first article in Strumenta Signals this month originates from the book. I will be sharing a few more tips over the coming months.
Cheers,
Federico

A migration is a large project, with many moving parts and actors involved. This means coordination, and coordination requires a shared plan. In this video I reiterate this concept and share how we achieve this in Strumenta.

Using Language Engineering to build a smarter RAG for code
The rise of Large Language Models (LLMs) has opened up a lot of possibilities, but they come with a core limitation: knowledge cut off and hallucinations. This is why Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) was developed.
