Sweet talk. But it's about PHP 7, didn't expect something less.
Well, after this talk I realised there's a lot out there that I still am not capable of as a php developer. Creating an extension for PHP 5, PHP 7 and HHVM is one of those things. This talk made some interesting points. It clearly focuses on the specific MongoDB implementation. It was interesting to see how composer even changed extension development.
I missed some side by side comparisons, but that's just nitpicking ;)
This could become a game changer! Hopefully the big frameworks start to pick Baleen up, and start using it underlying their own implementations.
There might be too much focus on explaining why depending on Baleen could be a good thing for others, as one could easily find arguments for the opposite too: a new dependency on an external library might introduce some problems. The more you try to explain about the benefits, the more some critics will be responding with the cons. Most developers already know what the good or bad is about packages (using composer every day).
I for one would have loved to hear more about Baleen itself, and the way it works and can be integrated, because it really is an interesting idea, and worth the time.
You'll notice that Mattias is an experienced speaker, with more field experience on the topic than 95% of the audience. He provides you with a very clear introduction in HTTP/2, and has some conclusions that you'll take with you to write apps that could be ready for the next web. Great talk!
There is a lot going on in this talk, at a more advanced level, and sometimes in seems quite chaotic, without really being so. You can quickly get lost if you're not paying attention, so pay attention, 'cause it's a really interesting topic.
Really loved the complete overview, and wrote down a lot of useful applications to start with.
Really good recap of all the possible implementations, with pro and con. Can the slides be found somewhere?
Really nice talk about a big step forward in migration systems. Hoping that a lot of projects migrate their migrations to this ;-)
Very Interesting ! Thank You !
Loved it on so many levels. Great example of how frameworks can cooperate and combine efforts. Great example of DDD in action. Great example of reusable PHP package design. Thanks!
