Finding small chunks of time to learn. Tonight I'm reduced to reading ng-book while brushing my teeth!

Continuing to work through the tutorial from the @AngularGirls workshop that I went to before @AngularConnect. Clearly this is not going to be easy, but so worthwhile!

@AngularConnect was absolutely excellent! Inspired & can't wait to learn more Angular. Massive thanks to friends & family for childcare & school runs over 3 days of workshop & conference, my husband for building me a laptop, but most of all to @moonty for making it all possible🙂

Fascinating insights from @nae_ohmi about what internationalisation really means and why it's important @AngularConnect

Thanks to the amazing (and hilarious) @saniyusuf I just learned so much! @AngularConnect "There's reactive forms or there's reactive forms.... You can use either" 😀

Surprisingly, the giant turtle is unrelated to @AngularConnect

All set for Day 2 of @AngularConnect

Heading home at the end of an amazing packed day @AngularConnect (with a little souvenir for my husband)

Thought-provoking talk by @GHBoer on accessibility @AngularConnect made me realise that there are many kinds of users who I've never really considered

@elanathellama "Finding Angular" was perfect for a beginner like me. Nice to know about Material UI, by the way 🙂 @AngularConnect

Thank you @manu_murthy - wonderful talk @AngularConnect

Great insights from @PhilippeDeRyck on cross-site scripting, broken authentication and component vulnerabilities and how to avoid them @AngularConnect

@AngularConnect Just the first session and I'm bowled over by the people and the technology... Angular is a whole new world to me but I'm already loving it ❤️

Having our 3rd successful @AngularGirls workshop at @AngularConnect 😎 ... thanks for being part of you again and supporting us ❤️

Me: "Is it sad that I find keyup.enter really exciting?" Everyone else, emphatically: "No!" Now I know I'm with the right people

Great hands-on experience, working through Todo List tutorial with excellent mentor Richard Brammer

Learned about the values which drive the Angular team; components as building blocks; the advantages of Typescript

"Everyone comes to coding with their own ideas and a different approach, so a diverse team makes the product better."

Highlights included: "Programming doesn't feel like a natural space for women, but it should... The first-ever programmer was a woman: Ada Lovelace."

Had a fantastic day at ngGirls workshop. What a revelation! It's not as tough as I thought. Huge thanks to Shmuela, Robert and all mentors @AngularGirls
