EVALUATION
Application modernization, customization and enhancement includes two main components: Presto and code transformation. The transformation process involves identifying programs to be updated, using a product to convert the existing code. However, this initial transformation is not the final step; additional refinement and "massaging" of the code, referred to as "delivery," is needed.

The backend development ensures the application's functionality, but there is also a focus on the frontend design, such as button colors, fonts, and dealing with constraints from the transformed code, particularly from an RPG or COBOL background. We will cover what is achievable with the user interface (UI), highlighting the possibilities and constraints.

This conversation will highlight the importance of long-term planning from quick wins to full transformation, ensuring that the transition is smooth for end users.
