Being a Developer Advocate: Week 26

My first professional YouTube video is out: https://youtu.be/qMdXbeHvs60

I usually am very bad at publishing stuff as I am so perfectionist by nature 😞 So this feels like a big personal achievement!

With Practice comes speed

As I continue my journey of short video tutorials it becomes clearer and clearer that with practice comes speed.

The first three videos of my 2-minute format took me about three days to complete and now I am done with two more already in just one day 🥳

I also have a lot of fun trying out new stuff in post-production. All the videos come out as playful and even if they are not perfect I am delighted with them.

The last sixth month helped to calm down my perfectionist mind and rather publish something when it is good enough.

Closing our Hackathon

The winners of our hackathon were announced and we had a wholesome closing ceremony where we showed the presentations they submitted.

We had some great learnings over the course of the hackathon that we will share with a blog post.

The most memorable moments I had:

  • Opening keynote by Jason Huggins: Truly inspiring (https://youtu.be/BZKS9B2wgNM)
  • Panel discussion: Awesome panelists and the prepared questions worked perfectly (https://youtu.be/7w8CYpxkdmg)
  • Workshops: Our docs are at a stage where I can reference everything I explain 😃
