I took over development of a significant-sized PHP app that was written 
for a client by a previous freelancer.

It had stylesheets in it to begin with, so I suppose that’s something.

I have fixed various brain-deadness in the code (e.g. the usual database 
sloppiness) as I have had to touch parts of it to add features, fix bugs 
etc.

I like to go back to Python after a PHP session to ... kind of ... get the 
taste out of my mouth ...
