The preparation for the workshops was awful. The information about what we nneed in preparation for the workshop was either wrong, incomplete or nonexistant.
This made attending the workshops more stressful than necessary and I was always spending 25% of the time setting up my system and not learning anything about the workshops topic.
Suggestion for improvement:
List with each workshop a correct and detailed list of mandatory and optional requirements. Of course not everybody will prepare his or her notebook, but it is a difference if 20 people are struggeling to setup their systems or just one or two.
And guys! We have the year of 2016! Why not have a github ( or equivalent) project , where everybody can get the essential project files to start with and update inbetween to get a new stage of the files?
Sumultaneously typing code of a barely readable screen and trying to follow what the speaker tells is not efficient for understanding.
What brings me to the readability of the screen: When the code was magnified it was ok. But everytime it was not, I could not discern between round, curly and square brackets. But, duh..., the difference is not important, is it?
Alltogether this made both workshop days for me a rather stressful than educating event.
