Great talk, lots to think about when I next venture near the API...

I had a fascinating 45mins or so with Rowan Merewood talking PWAs and AMP.

This is a feature I'd love to see at other conferences, as many speakers say 'come talk to me afterwards' but are then difficult to find and you don't know how long you can talk with them for. Having this structured was really valuable.

This talk is packed full of good advice and experience from Rob. The slides were excellent and content was well crafted.

My only criticism would be that the pace could be picked up a little - there were times of long pauses and I found my focus drifting more than I would have liked for the first talk of the day.

That said, a big thank you to Rob for standing in last minute to give this talk, and I enjoyed speaking to him in person in and around the conference.

Laser Quest, Board Games, Beer.

What's not to like!

Gary was entertaining to listen to as per usual!

As a list of features, I feel this is best communicated via a blog (of which Gary writes an excellent one https://blog.jetbrains.com/phpstorm), though that said - the productivity guide is an essential tool that I hadn't come across until now!

What I felt made this talk worth listening to however was that Gary was opinionated in the way he uses his IDE and it was really interesting to see someone else's way of working with their tools.

I think this talk could perhaps be improved by using distraction free workspaces and improved focus as the core of the talk.

This was excellent as a lightning talk and I always enjoy Michaels talks.

I enjoyed the audience participation in here, and also think it was wise to not milk that too much by having it be all audience participation - the balance was just about right.

If I have one suggestion it would be to invert some of the questions to keep us guessing. 'False' was the answer to almost all of the questions.

Having attempted to implement a CSR myself and broken lots of stuff, this talk was invaluable.

I had completely missed that you can add report only headers! And also nonces will help me avoid using 'unsafe-inline'.

Matt took what was potentially a very dry subject and through his speaking style and pacing made a very interesting and at times fun talk. Probably my favourite talk of the conference.

Katy talked with great enthusiasm and clarity, it's always great to see people talk about their passions.

I found it hard to get any takeaways from this talk, but I enjoyed it all the same and I think every conference needs a talk that provides a little comic relief. This talk in particular is packed with brilliant knitting-code puns!

I think the way this talk could provide the most value is if the concepts were flipped the other way around, as a tool to help people (in particular but not exclusively) the older generation understand the concepts of coding by using 'code' they already understand.

This talk as certainly worth hearing and I'd like to see more talks from Katy in the future.

Thanks for sharing

A well-crafted presentation on something which I guess needs to be well-crafted of itself. The questions afterwards were particularly well handled, I thought. I look forward to reading the RFCs!
