Went live (finally)

Well, I finally did my first live coding session. It was super interesting.

Honestly, I was a little bit stressed and I was hoping it would go well. Finally, I think I finished without messing up (well, not too much).

The session was an introduction to CSS Grid. There were about 15 participants. Pretty cool.

The most important thing, in my opinion, is to have a clear plan (at least in the main lines of what you intend to present). Even when you know the subject very well. A code may not work well; in that case, you need to be relaxed enough to find out where the error (if any) comes from and fix it.

All in all, a pretty cool experiment.

Depending on my availability at work next week I'm willing to do one or two more live coding sessions on WordPress theme development.
