Longhorn PHP Conference 2018
19 - 21 Apr 2018 at Commons Learning Center

Great tips for dealing with API's. Learned lots of things that I can use to help me while maintaining my API.

Learned some things I wasn't expecting, like docker machine. I would have liked more story telling, rather than "now I'm going to x" while typing x.

Fantastic techniques for designing an API. I learned lots of things that I should be doing to change the API that I maintain.

The challenges are fun and interesting to learn the techniques that are used to break into a site.

Solid talk, clearly communicated. Would've liked a little more info relevant to php applications specifically, but given the time constraint this was a great talk that made the oft-confusing AWS configuration clearer for me.

Well done, highly informative.

Excellent work with experiencing failure during live coding and letting it go. That is a rare skill to have, especially in front of an audience.

Very energetic & stentorian speaker. I loved that the slides were driven by the script, not the script driven by the slides.

A suggestion for usability, though: please don't use dark text on a darker background when presenting via projector. This makes it difficult to read unless the projector is super bright.

Good talk.

@max Thanks for the honest feedback - I appreciate it. If I give this one again in the future I may try to tweak the abstract to give a better idea of what it'll be like. Maybe a better mix of basic concepts and challenges rather than the current challenge-heavy split could help with this.

There was some good information here, but honestly I was expecting a _tutorial_, not just a series of challenges. This was more like where the cartoon dad says "you can die in water. Your life may depend on learning to swim" and you understand and then he just throws you into the pool and says "ok, now swim!". I tried participating at first, but it quickly became apparent that this was not a tutorial session so much as a "fun session" for developers already familiar to some extent with pentesting. I've seen Chris speak previously and was blown away with his presentation so maybe my hopes were set too high, but this one was disappointingly disorganized and under developed.
