Would be a 5* if it had hit 45 minute length. Material was solid, and you provided further context when answering questions that comes from experience of actually doing the work. For future editions of this talk building answers to those questions into the slides should land this at just about the right length, so I figure this will hit 5* the next time I see it.

Great run through all things APIs. Drinking from the Trask firehose!

Lot's of great and useful info! I appreciate the blog post with the same info.

The only reason this is four rather than five stars is that the talk ran quite short (~25m in a 50m slot); in a shorter track format the presentation is excellent as-is.

This talk mixes explanations, suggestions, and anecdotes skillfully. Maybe I'm biased because these items resonate with my personal experience, but hopefully this shows up at future conferences elsewhere. Could even work in a single-track conf.

Teriyaki chicken and rice, yes please! Wishing there was dessert though.

on Lunch

Great talk with good discussion at the end. Presented well, and covered the tricky aspects around Code Reviews. Good opinions sprinkled around.

Really appreciate the high energy zaniness of Lemon. Absolutely my style of presentation, especially after lunch!

This was one of those talks I wish I had a recording for. There were so many details that I loved. My 4pm brain is already melted. So hoping my notes make sense in the future.

I had so much fun with this and really understanding what was under the hood. Its definitely an empowering moment to see my package live in the ecosystem, even if it was just a really basic Hello World.

My biggest takeaway was the tools. I absolutely love all the thoughtfulness of the php-library-starter-kit and all these features fully working right out of the box. I am really excited to take this back to my org.

I picked up so many tricks here on PHP security. I really like the git project broken into modules, a solid README, and easy-to-find TODOs. I also like that the code base is very real world and it was so easy to get started.

One suggestion in future workshops would be to include success criteria. I frequently went in rabbit holes of trying to see if I was successful with my code changes.
