True North PHP 2015
5 - 7 Nov 2015 at Microsoft Canada

I had read about the ADR pattern but wasn't sure what to think. After listening to this talk I feel like I have a clear understanding of the concept. Paul spoke with passion and knowledge of the subject, and took the time to answer as many questions as possible.

I happened to be working with MySQL JSON the day before the talk. Morgan's talk answered all my questions and more. I'll be putting his ideas into practice soon.

Mark's talk was both interesting and entertaining. It's always nice to hear that I'm not the only one battling a legacy codebase.

Bernhard's enthusiasm for Puli is contagious. I'm excited to gain a deeper knowledge of the tool. Thanks for your work on this tool and the excellent talk.

I especially liked the fact that Ciaran's focus was on the mindsets and attitude behind BDD and PhpSpec, and how decisions were made regarding the code generation. Great talk.

Excellent presentation style! Good balance between theory and practical code examples. Paul delivers a very important message about separation between domain logic and access/presentation transport layers. This is something I try to encourage my clients to do so it is refreshing to see other people supporting the principles. Helped to understand how "MVC frameworks" do not use the name properly, reminding what pattern should be used in what context.

Would be great if there is a skeleton application that can be referenced to get started correctly in ADR.

Awesome talk.

Great talk, and thank you for including the references!
