Slides from a workshop given at the Codeland conference. Participants were able to build a Slack bot that would order "pizza" from the nearest Domino's Pizza.
to build a Slack bot that will order "pizza" from Domino's • Take an idea and break it into smaller steps • Work in pairs on a project, maybe with someone you don't that well know yet • Maybe learn about the 90s TGIF lineup
curious: • When in doubt ask questions • Be curious when someone asks a question • Be kind: • We're all beginners and just learning, be kind with yourself and with others
an exercise • Read the full README for each exercise! • How to get help: • Ask in the #questions channel • Get Avi or Cole's attention and we'll swing by • Each branch contains sample code if you get totally stuck
• Only one laptop open for the first 2-3 exercises • This isn't a race. If you don't finish... that's ok! Just have fun! • This is self paced and open sourced • Help each other • It's a great way to learn
• You have permission to be a beginner (we're all beginners) • If you get frustrated, discouraged, confused, hot and sweaty: • Take a break • Lean back in your chair, let it hold your weight, take a breath, feel your feet on the floor • Get up and move around; think about something else
