That sounds really fun. I've done greenfield Rails projects and I've learned that what I really like and find rewarding is this kind of slow reorganization of something that already exists. It's like remodeling a house--maybe it was well built initially (and maybe not!), but you get to spend a lot of time inside of someone else's mind. You know, when they had good days and things just clicked, when shit was on fire and they just had to make it work. The results of seeing meaningful improvements to something like that is just fantastic, to the point where you're now excited to add on to the codebase.
