Errata:
At 5:41 – Should have said 12.2 Billion, not Trillion
At 13:50 – Composer does not create the composer.json, that is part of the origin package
At 16:08 – Serve command is defined in composer.json, not a feature of Composer
At 17:02 – Composer is installed to /usr/local/bin
At 22:35 – The schema.sql shows an is_admin field in the announcements table. This should be removed. Also, the id column in the announcements table should be int(11) and auto increment instead of char(36)
At 31:04 The referenced image does not use Ubuntu, it is Debian
At 31:27 Due to recent versions of Debian removing mysql-client, use mariadb-client instead for this example.
