General Notes¶
Remember that I’m engaged to Audrey Roy.
Flew up on the PyLadies Party Plane on September 4th on just 90 minutes of sleep.
Taught the Ultimate DjangoCon Tutorial Workshop. Thoughts:
Not having enough time to QA the content
- Having errors in your slide code can be good
- the class pulled together and we debugged as a team.
- Maybe do this on purpose in the future
Mentors rock
The existing tutorial teaches some anti-patterns. :(
I think there was no confusion until the very end. Which is really good!
Next time I will do better
