Talk at Tech’n Drinks

Thank you 2017
Inspired by Holger Woltersdorf and his post on the 24 days of December website I thought I could write a little thank you note. At least it is the time of the year to get all warm and fuzzy, so let’s do this.
Does your code smell like a wet dog?
Over the last couple of weeks I did a talk about Codesmells and Refactoring at the International PHP Conference, the PHP user group Dresden and the PHP user group Munich.
Automate all the things at PHPUGMUC
At the PHP User Group Munich in March I presented a talk called “Automate all the things”. Its an introduction into automation with Ansible, Ant and Jenkins. It’s basically about setting up servers and deploying your application to different environments by just pushing a button. The talk was recorded and is available on YouTube so have fun 😉

Yesterday I gave a talk at the PHP User Group in Mannheim.
