Honestly, I wouldn't--unless there's an overwhelmingly good reason to
essentially re-write the app, I wouldn't.

If I *had* to, I would run two apps in parallel and convert things over one
page at a time.

My own preference would be to keep most of the business logic "as-is" and
expose an API and convert the front end to a client-side framework (e.g.,
React/Vue).
