1. The Good

• Awesome location ⛷
• Hands-on workshops
• Enthusiastic coaches/presenters
• Free bar 🍺
• Free digital books! 📚

2. The Bad

• Many workshops were not directly related to Swift!
  I expected everything to be Swift (given the name of the conference: Swift Alps)
  Perhaps more focus on new stuff in iOS11 and Swift 3.2/4 would be a good idea

3. The Ugly

• Way too noisy!
  Perhaps add "movable-walls" to block sound between the workshop teams
• Not enough TV's
  Perhaps each workshop team should have its own TV

PS. Maybe extending the conference with 1 additional day, starting the conference with a few talks in the morning, then a mingle event in the evening, before the 2-days of workshop-mode.

Thanks for a nice conference!

Few things:

• I did enjoy that I can walk around and peak into what others are doing in the neighbour workshops
• I loved the coffee and food - that really made the day great
• I liked that I got to try things I usually won't have the time to

Recommendation:

• I'd recommend to have a single monitor on each table, that would help mentors to use it for the 10 minutes they need to intro the workshop content instead of going around with the whole group and wait for the big tv screen :)
