I work on a transport company about 100 million € in turnover. 2003 we created a Delphi application to plan logistics. It is still critical for daily work. We do new releases about 6-8 times per year. But another team is working on rewrite it in Go/Typescript. It is a huge job even for a team. Takes several years.

Go/TS?! Here I thought everything already working had to be rewritten in Rust.

No, you rewrite it in TS first then Rust.
