It took me a week (which is quite normal) to understand what kind of audience would be there. I am a <a href=\"https:\/\/ahmadawais.com\/about\/\">Full Stack WordPress developer<\/a>, which means there were a number of topics that I could\u00a0talk about. But, what good a talk would do if the majority didn&#8217;t understand it.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"the-audience\">The Audience<a href=\"#the-audience\" class=\"heading-link\">#<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>When I knew that most of the audience at the meetup was going to be computer science students and fresh freelancers, I was in the bit of a pickle. While I wanted to talk about\u00a0continuous integration, CLI-based deploy routines and bash functions for advanced Git workflow, the audience was probably looking for very basics of software development. The people who were still struggling with the idea of choosing the right direction for their careers.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"the-preparation\">The Preparation<a href=\"#the-preparation\" class=\"heading-link\">#<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>After telling my inner-self(the workflow addict) to <em>shut-the-f**k-up,<\/em> I started with the very basics.\u00a0I have an odd process of preparing a talk. When I commit to presenting somewhere, I start writing the slides on a daily basis (even if the day when I get to present it, is months away). Yup, I know what you are thinking. Who does that?<\/p>\n<p>Well, I do. I believe that one cannot just sit down and write something good let alone something inspirational. Be curious. Read widely. Try new things. I think a lot of what people call <em>intelligence<\/em> boils down to curiosity.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"the-recipe\">The Recipe<a href=\"#the-recipe\" class=\"heading-link\">#<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>By writing the slides on a daily basis what I really meant was noting the points and saving the thoughts that I can speak about. I use <a href=\"http:\/\/Trello.com\">Trello<\/a> and Google Keep for this process.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"google-keep\">Google Keep<a href=\"#google-keep\" class=\"heading-link\">#<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/keep\/\">Google Keep<\/a> has become a part of almost my every other workflow.\u00a0I have it installed in my Android and since I use Google Chrome, there is a Google Keep app for your Mac or PC. I can save any thought anywhere via Mobile or Mac and share it with my teammates. To add to it, my notes and to-do lists are synced across the devices.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"paper-and-pen\">Paper and Pen<a href=\"#paper-and-pen\" class=\"heading-link\">#<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>So, when I am always\u00a0thinking about points and making notes\u00a0then in the end, i.e. one week before I get up on the stage, I start reviewing all the collected random thoughts and notes. From here on out, I shift from Google Keep to a simpler workflow with a paper and pen. In a day or two, I end up rearranging the notes and dividing them into a few useful categories.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"html5-slides\">HTML5 Slides<a href=\"#html5-slides\" class=\"heading-link\">#<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Now, all that&#8217;s left to do is prepare the slides. I used to do that with Powerpoint but then all the presentations started to look the same,\u00a0everyone can spot a PPT from a mile away. Then I shifted to <a href=\"https:\/\/prezi.com\/\">Prezi<\/a>\u00a0but I wanted to have more control.\u00a0This particular slide was built with Flexbox, Gulp, Jade, Stylus and BrowserSync all on top of the Google slide deck JS.<\/p>\n<p>Being a front-end developer for so long, I guess I got spoiled by\u00a0HTML5 templates powered by JavaScript with CSS3 2D\/3D transitions and animations. One can use Google&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/ahmadawais\/html5slides\">HTML5Slides<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/hakimel\/reveal.js\">Reveal.js<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/imakewebthings\/deck.js\">Deck.js<\/a>, etc. Or you can try GUI like\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/slides.com\/\">Slides.com<\/a>\u00a0which basically uses Reveal.js\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/slides.com\/about\">behind the scenes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"personal-development\">Personal Development<a href=\"#personal-development\" class=\"heading-link\">#<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>Personal development is an important aspect of my life.\u00a0I embrace a holistic approach to software development. This means that I think that if you want to be a better software developer\u2014a better anything, really\u2014you need to focus on the entire person, not just one or two areas of your life.<\/p>\n<p>In this talk, I talk about three important aspects in the life of software developer i.e. self-learning, career directions, risk analysis and ended it with a little bit about WordPress community, how to contribute and finally <code>capital_P_dangit()<\/code>.
