This was a really fun evening. Glad to see so much people joining! I understand this was a trial run so it's normal that things went wrong. Hope this feedback helps:
- Try to have the groups on the classroom created beforehand so people only need to join the relevant group
- Perhaps allow everyone to do all the different tests. Some groups finished pretty fast. It's ok if they don't get to finish everything but at least this way they all get to do all the different types of tests and not just one type
- Improve infrastructure so the Nucleus guys can't DDoS it ?
- Add prizes so everyone in the group has one instead of just one person (or just skip prizes all together, not that important for me personally)
- Add a Slack channel on PHP Belgium where everyone can join and where you can copy/paste useful links, commands, etc
- Allow people to install and trial run the docker instance beforehand (without giving any information about the tests). This will save some time to get people started
All in all I think the most important thing is to allow people to do more. If you can find ways to get people started faster you'll have more time for them to do more types of tests. I think if you work on these points it can really become a great and fun workshop.
I had a great time even with the "bugs" ?Thanks for a great evening!
