The story

Thirty-four slides and an eight-minute exercise: two kinds of fast, three code smells, five Unity seams with their cost in minutes, the first-hour checklist, four premature abstractions to avoid, and a 30-second decision test.

Hard parts cleared

  • A fixed 1600 by 900 stage scaled to any screen, so the projector shows exactly what the laptop shows.
  • Presenter keys for notes, a jump menu and a talk timer, and a small C# highlighter with no library.
