summary
Claims that common songs map to concrete steps of development and demonstrates it with real artifacts: a one‑liner Spring Boot setup that shows framework wiring, a Twitter-sourced code snippet sung live, commit and git push rituals tied to specific song lines, and typical ops fixes including the infamous sudo kill -9. The session runs ~30 minutes, mixes live guitar performance with code examples, links a Spotify playlist and GitHub pages, and proves the approach is entertaining and repeatable.
