85 minutes. Ran through Code Along of building blog_app with the intent of do as it says, knowing you won't understand it yet. May be better as a 2+/3 actual to explain at a high level what commands are doing.

Also did not touch on serializers and what they do. Just showed how you can customize the users serializer to display certain information as an attribute.

Ran short. Went threw overview and activities for use of back-end. Spent 5 minutes on building blog app but didn't get past generating user resource. Truly need 3+ to give solid overview for rails-api-single-resource runs smooth and on time.

155 minutes, 3.1 actual.

Delivery went well. I goofed on the example data, but otherwise things went smoothly. Developer engagement was incredibly low during the Demo, but otherwise engagement was high. I'm not sure it's a great idea to narrate this demo, or to do it at the end. Perhaps it would be better as a code-along? If so, we'll need to re-add preparation instructions.

Talk went fine. Messed up on the demo because I was accidentally in the tic-tac-toe repo instead of the rails-api repo so had to re-code some of the demo. People seemed meh during the demo but think it was because it wasn't a code-along. Would like to talk a bit more about file structure for 017. People seemed to enjoy the labs. Note to self: make sure to go over file structure again after scaffolding.

Talk was fine. Should've white-boarded to diagram MVC and controllers, models, and serializers. Need to be more confident in myself when delivering something I'm uncertain about. Over I feel it went okay. People seem to enjoy the acting out MVC lab.
