ZgPHP meetup #79 (2018/03)

Great talk and topic!

You were a bit nervous, but it went away after first minutes. Great English.
For your first talk, it was "excelente"! :)

For future I would suggest a slower pace and more examples that take the audience deeper into the topic.

I really enjoy great plot twists. During the first minute, I wasn't really sure if it was about cheesecakes cause, in the end, it was Zoka, but then he change the talk in an instant. The great thing is that he "inspired" me to give a lightning talk next time for sure! :)

Great talk, really interesting topic. I would suggest to the presenter to slow down a little bit, he ran through the slides. Everything else, great job. :)

Really good talk, with core idea was well presented.

Few more examples would be good though.

I liked the casual way of presentation. The theme was actually pretty interesting. The problem for me was that it seemed like the only person that can actually follow the talk is Luka. I get the idea behind this approach, but it feels like we spent too much time on configuring the system to actually get something interesting out of it. It might be a good idea to pre-configure it and share a document that lists possible setup problems.

A great, fun and inspired talk. Well done Zoka, well done :D :D

I don't mind the laid-back approach and not pre-configuring anything (to show those steps also), but a little bit more preparation would have probably been beneficial to this talks since there were times when the presenter was trying to remember where things are and so on..
But, from my didn't-know-nothing-about-phabricator-before-the-lecture perspective, it was a pretty informative talk.

I don't like cheesecakes but after the talk I'll give them another try :)

For the first 2 minutes I was sure Zoka is gonna speak about cheesecakes on ZgPHP ... double and tripple facepalms started happening in my head .. and then he turned it around and made his point brilliantly!

I was really interested to see how phabricator works and what does it offer, Luka was pretty clear on that part, but I feel the flow/usage of the whole system was presented in a bit of a confusing way.

1) I guess 'gc' in CLI is an alias for 'git commit'
2) I guess 'gps' in CLI is an alias for 'git push'
3) jumping from menu to menu was hard to follow at times

I have a feeling Luka was trying to wing it instead of preparing the talk in a fluid way, which would make phabricator more appealing IMO. I understand the constraints of time for such a big project to show are tough but he did explain/motivate me enough to try it out (which I plan to do shortly).

I do hope speaker will continue spreading his passion for phabricator on other meetups/conferences as the tool looks really really nice!
