workshop: cfWheels - an introduction

Tue, 30 Mar 2010 08:21:00 --0100

Chris Peters leads the evangelism team, writes documentation, presents to user groups, and helps spread the word of cfWheels. Chris will be giving an introduction today about the framework.

ColdFusion on Wheels provides fast application development, a great organization system for your code, and is just plain fun to use. One of our biggest goals is for you to be able to get up and running with Wheels quickly. We want for you to be able to learn it as rapidly as it is to write applications with it.

DATE UPDATED - Sadly Chris was ill today (30th) so we're pushing it back a week - please tune in next week

DATE UPDATED... AGAIN - Sadly I can no longer make today (6th) so we're pushing it back another couple of days - please tune in on Friday

Tue, 23 Mar 2010 07:53:00 --0100

As you know cfFrameworks is a Adobe user group but as such they encourage us to have a co-manager, therefore I'm requesting anyone reading this that is interested please get in contact with me. cfFrames [-at-] talkwebsolutions.co.uk You will be required to help update the site, do screen casts/podcasts of the latest updates and new realises of frameworks and general news updates. More than anything else it's a great way to keep you 'eye in'. I look forward to hearing from you.

Whats happened to cfFrameworks?

Wed, 23 Sep 2009 09:26:00 --0100

So a lot of you may be wondering what has happened on this site?? Well that is justified. I've been really busy of late and I'm sorry to have lost a little focus on this. I've been setting up my business and it's taken a lot of time from my day. I now want to put some time aside to get this site back up and running and for what I would like some feed back. What you would like to get from this site - who we should interview, should we get the podcasts back, are screen casts better etc? Please add your comments below or reply via twitter @cfFrameworks

As Mr Forta has pointed out over on his blog the CFWheels chaps have released an update to their framework. This framework has been quite for a while so im looking forward to checking it out again.

Workshop: Writing Apps with COOP by John Farrar (take 2)

Wed, 23 Apr 2008 22:49:00 --0100

Following on from out previous canceled presentation please see the new details for the new presentaion here: --- John Farrar has kindly offered to do a workshop showing how one can build a web app using COOP (co-op).

COOP (or CO-OP long hand) is a re-factored work from our companies internal technologies at SOSensible. We hope others get some of the same delight and excitement we do. This technology lets you pull as much programming off your markup page as you wish. It can be so extreme that a designer can code your markup page and he/she may never have to do another loop or conditional statement to work with ColdFusion pages. This is done by a mix of Custom Tag concepts and a paired CFC called a CO-Processor that runs side by side with the markup page. (CO-Processor stands for "Control Object Processor) In fact this may be the most simple form of MVC for CF developers.
