Chris did an awesome job explaining and presenting and demystifying what a "Design Pattern" really is.
The only suggestion is for an ending slide with some resources on PHP or Software Engineering material to follow up on this important topic. Thanks.
Really enjoyed this talk. Some insightful stuff covered such as "Query caching" and the MUTEX implications that it has.
Thanks for sharing!
Perhaps installing composer and PHPUnit should have been listed in the prerequisites. We seemed to spend a lot of time getting everyone up and running to that point. I appreciated your examples, but I think I can speak for the majority of your audience that hasn't written their own tests, we would have appreciated using a good block of the time to actually hand write our own tests.
I think the talk was interesting but Magento 2 is a beast -- too much materal covered.
I would have loved to have a more hands on and focused experience since the talk was purely display and play.
Maybe having an example with GitHub repo for everyone to go over in the class would be super helpful
UNfortunately, at the end of the talk I did not "walk out with a working Magento 2 environment & module"
The level interactivity might've been worth it, but slowed the pace quite a bit. I would suggest next time also discussing the ability for a class to contain another class within a property and parameter type hinting.
I wish I knew this years ago ... BRB ... lots of rewriting to do ...
Really enjoyed the lab with the Git exercises.
Thanks
I appreciate the insight into the life of a coder with mental illness and the emphasis on coming together in community to compliment each other's strengths and weaknesses.
I was very touched by your willingness to expose your raw emotions of appreciation for your wife.
Motivated me to be more involved in my local community and not been afraid to share what you know, even if its a little someone else may not know that little!!!
That's a huge data dump and I know I'm going to be consulting these slides again and again and again and again. I'm always looking for more tools, though, and so I'm thrilled by this talk.
