apply your self ( most valuable asset,
since that has yielded you success so far )
to learning MVC, and maybe Reactive or single direction of data flow architecture.
here's the kicker: only learn so much that you know a little more than the other guys in the companies doing web forms, and then
market yourself as the guy
who knows the legacy code base, knows the organizational in
and outs, knows the systems, and who's going to help transition them to MVC ( and newer tech )
so you're a guy ( or gal ) with little experience in MVC teaching folks with no experience in MVC, how to transition to MVC.
this is a niche, and you'd be perfect
for it.
it'll be stimulating as there is the conceptual challenge of bridging the two realms, the satisfaction of using your extensive experience, and the excitement of growing yourself into something new.
i'm excited for you. not many people will be able to be at the right place and the right time to do this. and it sounds like, with a bit of results, this could spin into your own consulting or dev shop serving this technical debt.
this path works and the future is bright for people like you.
This does sound like a path, and like I mentioned in another post, it'd be easy to take an opensource webforms project and convert it. I'll probably try that out soon.
