thank you @mtliendo . I've received great feedback so far. I think to make it better, i'll convert some images to GIF. That should help bring out more the impact / benefit of doing this workshop (Also it's fun to see a car / dot move around a F1 Track)

Thanks @deekob , you did a great session on chat integration, attaching images and notifications. It felt like being on the pathway to creating WhatsApp 3.0 :) I think integrating something like Amazon Lex would be an epic next step.

Great writeup! It appears that the workshop no longer has the react project lab files. Are these available anywhere else?
