ICYMI - Hawaii ColdFusion Meetup Group - InertiaJS and ColdFusion with Eric Peterson
InertiaJS is a new JavaScript framework made for people who don’t really need an API but want to use a modern JavaScript framework like React or Vue as their view layer. Inspired by libraries like Turbolinks, InteriaJS makes your app behave like a SPA while still being a fully server-rendered app.

Online CFMeetup - Installing CF2023: choices, challenges, and solutions with Charlie Arehart
December 21st, 2023 at 12pm US Eastern Time
If you'll be installing CF2023, there are some things to consider before or as you do. First, be aware that besides the traditional full installer there's the new "zip" install option (added in CF2021). What's that about, why might you want to use it--or not?
Then there are some options and choices during installation--some new also with CF2021. Perhaps it's been a while since you've installed even previous CF versions. We'll cover some of the key options to consider (including license activation, package/module management, and more) as well as post-install steps including updating CF and the JVM, and migrating in CF Admin settings (including using the new CLI/json admin config tool, cfsetup).

12/06/23 - Blog - Ben Nadel - Generating Pandoc Heading Identifiers In ColdFusion
Over on my Feature Flags book website, I'm using my book's Markdown content to generate the HTML for the page. I then use jSoup to inject a table of contents (TOC); which requires that I insert an identifier into each header element. And, now that I'm trying to use Pandoc to generate an EPUB (digital book) version, I need to make sure that my ColdFusion-based header identifiers match the ones that Pandoc will generate in the final EPUB.

12/11/23 - Blog - Robert Zehnder - Bringing back commandbox-ssg
Over the past few years, my focus has been largely on blog-related projects. My initial foray into the world of static site generators began with commandbox-jasper. This project laid the foundation for my current static site generator, aptly named commandbox-ssg. commandbox-ssg not only inherits a substantial portion of its codebase from Jasper, but it also boasts several refinements and a more descriptive name that better captures its functionality. The name Jasper, while a sentimental nod to my dog, didn't quite convey the tool's purpose.
The transition of my development environment from MacOS to Windows, however, presented some unexpected challenges. It became apparent that my assumptions regarding file paths, which worked seamlessly on MacOS, were not compatible w...
