Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Back in the day when forms were king
VB dot NET made everything sing
Windows desktop apps so bright
Click and drag controls all night
Healthcare systems built with care
Patient data handled there
Legacy code that stood the test
Now it's time to modernize the rest

[Chorus]
From Framework to the modern way
Migration paths will guide the day
Model View ViewModel design
Keep the business logic fine
Lift and shift or break apart
Platform engineering art
Legacy lives but future calls
Modernization conquers all

[Verse 2]
WinForms buttons on the screen
DataGrids and TextBox clean
Event handlers wire the flow
User clicks and data grows
Then came WPF with style
XAML markup versatile
Binding magic connects the view
Separation clean and true

[Chorus]
From Framework to the modern way
Migration paths will guide the day
Model View ViewModel design
Keep the business logic fine
Lift and shift or break apart
Platform engineering art
Legacy lives but future calls
Modernization conquers all

[Verse 3]
Electronic health records deep
Clinical workflows we must keep
Web services speak SOAP and REST
Integration put to test
C sharp classes hold the state
Business rules that calculate
Hospital systems never sleep
Uptime promises to keep

[Bridge]
Platform engineers understand
Legacy systems fill the land
Healthcare, finance, government too
Dot NET Framework carries through
Build the bridges, plan the move
Compatibility layers smooth
Container wrap or cloud migrate
Modern architecture awaits

[Chorus]
From Framework to the modern way
Migration paths will guide the day
Model View ViewModel design
Keep the business logic fine
Lift and shift or break apart
Platform engineering art
Legacy lives but future calls
Modernization conquers all

[Outro]
Years of code deserve respect
Modernize but don't neglect
Platform thinking guides us through
Legacy to modern, tried and true
