A project doesn't need to be 10+ years old to be legacy.
This API is 3y old, and was the first iteration, the v1, of the company's digital asset management API, it's only maintained for a few teams around the world, whereas the v2 is well crafted and has a way more logical datamodel
It's just weird when I read stuff like "Yeah, I've had to do a bunch of maintenance on our legacy webpack/Angular 2 system" because in my mind webpack and Angular 2 are still very recent technologies, just not recent compared to webpack 2/Angular 5

Legacy != old
