Talk comments
I think the part about Why and When dragged a little bit. I also think the talk should have been called Intro to Refactoring as there weren't much practical examples. It was a good talk overall and someone the examples and the end it make it interesting. The advice was pretty good as well and well received.
Great talk! I'm so glad I went to it. It was a very new thing and considering the questions asked, it was definitely well covered and explained. Really made me want to try out and I will try using it in one my future projects. Thank you!
Great talk filled with examples and snippet of useful commands. Really liked the comparison between Docker and Vagrant. Definitely makes me want to look into automating my development setup. Thank you for such a great session!
Although the voice was a bit shaky cuz of nerves, Volker's key note absolutely delivered! It was inspiring, witty, and full of awesome quotes! This is one talk that I'll happily sit through and listen to again! Really funny and very good advice! Thank you for doing this!
Jez provided a really good talk on Kanban and rather than being a dry demo of whiteboards and post-its, he delivered a funny and engaging presentation.
We've played around with a form of kanban ourselves but never with any real guide to doing it right. Jez's talk opened my eyes to how we can get better, what we've done wrong and tips from this talk will hopefully make us better at what we're doing.
I think the talk was great but I just feel the title should be Xdebug: Past. Present and Future (and not Debugging). I learnt a lot of cool things about Xdebug. Overall a very good talk. Looking forward to trying out the code coverage things as well. Really well presented!
It was a shame it didn't cover PHP dbg extension and kinda dismissed it but if the talk's title is adjusted then it kinda isn't that bad.
I really enjoyed this talk.
Some great advice and easy to implement ideas and tips. We have already taken some of the things mentioned on board!
Came out of this talk with a great few things to think about and put into action - a sign of a great talk.
Really informative and entertaining! Lovely presentation and really nice experience. Really sold the hhvm and I'm going to try it out on a few projects!
Really enjoyed the talk. Would have wished stuff from PHP5.3 and PHP5.4 wasn't in it and more time was spent on use cases for PHP5.5 and PHP5.6 features. Its nice knowing features but what would be amazing is knowing how these new things improve our current code. Loved the enthusiasm!
It was good to see Apigility in use and how it works, as well as learning all the surrounding standards that are in place for helping build good APIs.
