Hey all, hope you enjoyed the Dev Lab we held last week!
I wanted to ask for open feedback - whether positive or negative - about your experience. What did you like? What should we do different nex...

First of all thank you for hosting it, I would love to see more of them. I think for us, remembering we are already up to our ears in Aurora planning, I was hoping for something more level 400/500 in how to build for Aurora.
I would love to have had a dev lab which had clear objectives i.e.:
- How to set up the SDK?
- Getting Postman Configured?
- Hints, tips, dos and don't for building effective custom components with Aurora
- Hackathon - Build your first Handlebars component
- Hackathon - Build your first react component
- React or Handlebars, that is the question
- Hackathon - Helpful utilities, code snippets
- Permissions Translation - Classic to Aurora - what's changed?
- Meet Big Pipe: The Firehose - What, why and how to handle big data
- Deep Dive - Breaking out of the community box (Integrations with pages and endpoints outside the community).
- Theming the Theme - Exploring how to setup multiple theme communities
- Aurora and AI
These are just a quick brain dump of things I would love to see in future sessions.
It wasn't that there was anything wrong with the devlab, I just felt it was to close to a roadmap / marketing call and not close enough to an engineering call, which is what I was hoping it would be.
Loved meeting everyone though and the breakout sessions were especially productive.
kudos isn't enough to support allensmith81's brain dump.
😍That is a great list and similar to what our team are working on discovery wise internally here. Unfortunately we missed the meet as it was 2am our time (we watched the recorded session)... No promises, but we're planning to release our own set of free tutorials shortly...

Both good pieces of feedback. I appreciate the examples you gave of what you'd like to see. The second bit also speaks to Lief 's note about more time for actually collaborating, which totally makes sense.
Thanks for this - it's good stuff, and I'm happy to pass it on.
