Slides and video from “Getting Started with Lift”

Yesterday I gave a presentation at lsug.org on "Getting started with Lift".  When I first started looking at Lift I found it quite tricky to grasp what was going on, so I wanted to try to pass on my experiences to help people over any initial humps they may encounter, but also push out to show where you can go with Lift.   So with that in mind, I gave a general overview and then dived in with some live coding.  This turns out to be quite challenging, but with the help of the front row to fix up various errors I made, and the IDE prompting me to fill in some blanks, I just about got there.

You can find the video at Skillsmatter's web site.  You can grab the slides from my talk, but scanning through them a moment ago I noticed that the code I included in the slides and the code I actually typed on the night are quite different.  So I've dumped the code, in the state that it was in at the end of the evening, over on github.

I managed to not mentioned the caveats with the code I was writing, and I missed out a section I was going to do on Box...but... hey, stuff happens.
