Show Notes
Luis and Jon host this episode. Jon speaks about his introduction to ColdBox as he was trying to modernize a legacy application. He stuck with the framework since the structure and the modularization made him a better developer. They speak about the importance of Open Source and the benefits that come with having a huge community that’s constantly giving ideas and having code that one can adapt for their needs. The next big thing Jon looks forward to inside ColdBox is asynchronous programming as it would open a new horizon for the language itself.
Jon’s driving force of solving problems elegantly pushes him to stay modern in the world of programming; taking inspiration from things happening in other languages. Sometimes to adapt those concepts into Coldfusion and other times to get ideas. They both discuss the importance of community and how the cfml one needs more participation even if it’s just a small one from new people that may eventually form part of it.
