Hey @sguthals. I just assigned you to this issue so that you can start thinking about developing content for this week's local streams. As a reminder, the ask is to create 60 min worth of introductory level content that our external instructors will teach.

This content can include a PowerPoint deck, code, Markdown file with exercises, a Learn module, or really anyting else that you think will be digestible for instructors and interesting to learners. This will be our first time trying this out so let me know what questions you might have!

Please have your content prepared by: August 10.

[drguthals]

Sounds good! I will start thinking about this. Thank you!

[drguthals]

@meaghanlewis - does this sound ok for a title/description?

I haven't been in on these so I want to make sure that they are aligned 😄

[meaghanlewis]

Yes, this sounds great for a title/description! It focuses on the tools that are needed for collaborative dev projects and then highlights the significant ones that will be demonstrated during the workshop.

Earlier in the week DI had asked for more information about this topic that we could share with potential instructors so let me pass this along. 😄

[drguthals]

@KimberlyBolton1 - This is ready for an edit pass!

Thanks!

[mebaumb]

Sent Sao Paulo title description to Caio for translation (7/23)

[mebaumb]

Abu Dhabi, Tel Aviv, and Bangalore are all published (7/28)

[meaghanlewis]

👋 Hey @sguthals, just wanted to see how this content was coming along. Happy to review any PR's for this when it is available.

[mebaumb]

Need to Publish Sao Paulo & US/Canada - Dynamics down

[drguthals]

👋
I would have the vendors be looking at this:
https://www.azuredevopslabs.com/labs/vstsextend/github-azurepipelines/#exercise-1-setting-up-automated-cicd-pipelines-with-azure-pipelines

and then walk the attendees through these steps. I would recommend they can share this out afterwards for our English-speaking locations (it is not localized) but I would recommend that this is what they walk them through! 😄

[drguthals]

This should be the follow on learning path!

😄

[meaghanlewis]

Thanks @sguthals!

Could we modify the description to say that VS Code, a GitHub account,an Azure account, and Azure DevOps account are pre-requisites to following along in this workshop? Let me know if that would be okay @KimberlyBolton1 @mebaumb

[KimberlyBolton1]

@meaghanlewis @sguthals
Yes, definitely. I've appended the pre reqs to the end of the abstract in the issue above.

[drguthals]

@meaghanlewis

• Just checking - do you need anything else from me for this? Otherwise I might remove myself as an assignee to clear up what I'm doing :)

[meaghanlewis]

@sguthals no, shouldn't need anything else from you unless any questions come up from instructors. Feel free to remove yourself as an assignee!
