There were never first-class settings for it in CommandBox so you would have had to use the runwar.args setting to activate. It also required you to include the MariaDB4j jars yourself in the classpath. (Note this is separate from the MariaDB CommandBox module 4 Jan Janek made).The settings it supported were: enable port base directory data directory SQL file to import So my question is, does anyone use the built in MariaDB4j integration in Runwar? If I removed it, would anyone care? If I put in first-class settings and documented it, would people use it? Does it sound useful? Worthless?https://community.ortussolutions.com/t/mariadb4j-support-in-commandbox-runwar/9666 ICYMI - Adobe ColdFusion 2023 released!!!!We are thrilled to announce the highly anticipated release of Adobe ColdFusion 2023!  Packed with cutting-edge features and enhanced performance, this release takes ColdFusion to new heights of innovation.Experience accelerated development, robust security measures, and seamless integration with modern technologies.

But did you know there are in fact several ways to deploy CF (or Lucee), including ways to run CFML without even needing to do that? In this session, veteran CF consultant Charlie Arehart will identify these, starting first with WHY it's useful to have different ways to be able to deploy CF/Lucee and CFML.Then he will discuss and demonstrate those several ways--whether you prefer to run CF on your own machine or another (whether hosted or in the cloud), to include even being able to run CFML WITHOUT need of CF (or Lucee) to be "installed" at all. He will cover such topics as installers (GUI and console-based), silent installation (and updates), Commandbox, WAR file deployment, container-based (Docker/Kubernetes) deployment, serverless deployment, as well as CLI-based execution of CFML, and execution via cffiddle and trycf, among others.Buckle up, buttercup, for a fast tour of this varied landscape.https://www.meetup.com/coldfusionmeetup/events/293987033/ "OctoPerf: The Load Testing Tool for Modern Web Apps", Guillaume BetailloulouxThursday June 15th at 12pm US Eastern Time, UTC-4:OctoPerf offers an integrated development Interface that you can use from any browser to execute load tests against your application.

While it's a new major release number, most of the items listed as new aren't really things that you will "see" as changed in the interface. I don't quite want to call it just "plumbing"--the folks had their reason to regard the new and changed features as warranting the major version number increase.https://www.carehart.org/blog/2023/5/19/fusionreactor_10_0_released/https://docs.fusion-reactor.com/release-notes/ ColdBox CLI 1.x ReleasedWe are thrilled to announce the release of our new ColdBox CLI tool!

What is needed is to add a JVM argument to the server. In my case I am using Ortus CommandBox and their ‘server.json’ definition. I added this in the ‘jvm’ section:```"jvm":{    "args":[        "-Dcoldfusion.datemask.useDasdayofmonth=true"    ]}```That’s the only change that is needed; the mentioned JAR hotfix is not needed.

How about that? And in that time I've had 3,645 comments from folks. I do write mostly for you all, so thanks!I also noticed that it marks my 17th year of blogging here, almost to the day with my first entry posted this same week back then, Apr 15 2006. That's "pretty darn interesting", as Ray Camden might say.FWIW, I'd also blogged elsewhere--yes, on CF--prior to starting this one. And the first of those posts were in early 1998--so technically it's my 25th anniversary of blogging about CF. :-)https://www.carehart.org/blog/2023/4/18/celebrating_600_posts_and_17_yearsICYMI - State of the CF Union 2023 ReleasedHelp us find out the state of the CF Union – what versions of CFML Engine do people use, what frameworks, tools etc.https://teratech.com/state-of-the-cf-union-2023-survey https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_dubo741aTc New Releases and UpdatesWebinar / Meetups and WorkshopsAdobe ColdFusion Workshop: DevOps, CI/CD, and PipelinesWednesday, May 10, 2023Time: 1:00 - 4:30pm ET; 10:00am - 1:30pm PTHost: CarahsoftCost: No FeeMax CPE Credits Available: 4.2 credit hours (1 CPE credit is based on 50 minutes) Field of Study: Information Technology This workshop is ideal for software engineers that are eager to build pipelines to automate their coding projects.

Sometimes, however - due to things like page layout constraints - an "external" button needs to trigger a non-parent form submission. Historically, I would have reached for JavaScript to get this done. But, I just learned that any button can natively target any form on the page by using the form attribute and a matching id value.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4447-associating-submit-buttons-with-any-form-using-button-attributes-in-native-html.htm4/14/23 - Blog - Ben Nadel - Building Resilient Feature Flags That "Fail Open" In ColdFusionWhen it comes to feature flags, I'm a super fan!

These applications will include a Google Translate clone, a low-code Contacts Manager, and an ETL workflow that integrates no-SQL with a relational database. Mark will use a combination of built-in ColdFusion tooling and freely available third-party integrations to build these applications, providing attendees with valuable insights into ColdFusion's API & data access development capabilities. All code samples will be available on GitHub following the talk in order to help attendees kick-start their own versions of the apps.https://exploring-apis-coldfusion.meetus.adobeevents.com/CFCasts Content Updateshttps://www.cfcasts.comNew FeaturesSearch is now powered by ElasticSearch with drastically increased search relevance.Recent Releases Mastering CommandBox 5 - 2 new videos - https://cfcasts.com/series/mastering-commandbox-5 Security Client Cert Auth ModCFML Nginx 2023 ForgeBox Module of the Week Series - 1 new Video https://cfcasts.com/series/2023-forgebox-modules-of-the-week  2023 VS Code Hint tip and Trick of the Week Series - 1 new Video https://cfcasts.com/series/2023-vs-code-hint-tip-and-trick-of-the-week  Coming Soon Brad with more CommandBox Videos More ForgeBox and VS Code Podcast snippet videos ColdBox Elixir from Eric Getting Started with Inertia.js from Eric Conferences and TrainingJ on the BeachBringing DevOps, Devs and Data Scientists together around Big DataMay 10-12, 2023 Malaga, Spainhttps://www.jonthebeach.com/ Ortus Profile: https://www.jonthebeach.com/jobs/54/Ortus%20SolutionsVueJS Live MAY 12 & 15, 2023ONLINE + LONDON, UKCODE / CREATE / COMMUNICATE35 SPEAKERS, 10 WORKSHOPS10000+ JOINING ONLINE GLOBALLY300 LUCKIES MEETING IN LONDONhttps://vuejslive.com/ Into the Box 2023 - 10th EditionMay 17-19, 2023 The conference will be held in The Woodlands (Houston), Texas - This year we will continue the tradition of training and offering a pre-conference hands-on training day on May 17th and our live Mariachi Band Party!

In that discussion, she mentioned the Beacon API as a means to efficiently and predictably send analytics data back to the server. I had never heard of the Beacon API before; but, it sounded like something that would be very helpful in customer-facing applications (where delivering metrics and analytics is key for a product's continuous improvement). As such, I thought I would experiment with using the navigator.sendBeacon() method to publish analytics data back to my ColdFusion server.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4444-using-navigator-sendbeacon-to-publish-analytics-back-to-coldfusion.htmhttps://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Navigator/sendBeacon4/10/23 - Slides - Brian (@hoyahaxa) - Slides from ColdFusion Summit East 2023 - "Codes, Ciphers, and ColdFusion: What They Don't Want You To Know"I spoke at ColdFusion Summit East 2023 last week.  I was fortunate to catch some good talks and Springtime in Washington, DC is always a great time to visit.  My talk was on ColdFusion and Encryption -- what to use, what not to use, and how to securely implement encryption into your applications.  I've shared my slides below, and I plan to turn the content into a few forthcoming blog posts.  https://hoyahaxa.blogspot.com/2023/04/slides-from-coldfusion-summit-east-2023.htmlCFML JobsSeveral positions available on https://www.getcfmljobs.com/Listing over 57 ColdFusion positions from 36 companies across 28 locations in 5 Countries.1 new jobs listed this weekFull-Time - ColdFusion Developer - Remote, United States - General Dynamics Information TechnologyPosted Apr 10https://www.getcfmljobs.com/jobs/index.cfm/united-states/ColdFusionDev-Remote/11562Other Job LinksThere is a jobs channel in the CFML slack team, and in the Box team slack now tooForgeBox Module of the WeekCFML Jupyter KernelThis is a module you can drop into your coldbox to get a nicely formatted overview of the tasks that were registered using the coldbox scheduler.This module should be considered experimental, so use at your own risk until further development has been done.https://jasonsteinshouer.com/introducing-cfml-jupyter-kernel.htmlhttps://github.com/jsteinshouer/cfml-jupyter-kernelhttps://mybinder.org/v2/gh/jsteinshouer/cfml-jupyter-kernel/main?urlpath=/treeVS Code Hint Tips and Tricks of the WeekVisual Studio Code and GitHub CopilotUpdates in March 2023v1 was basically fancy autocomplete.v2 has chat capabilities to edit existing code and get help configuring VSCode itself.https://code.visualstudio.com/blogs/2023/03/30/vscode-copilotThank you to all of our Patreon SupportersThese individuals are personally supporting our open source initiatives to ensure the great toolings like CommandBox, ForgeBox, ColdBox,  ContentBox, TestBox and all the other boxes keep getting the continuous development they need, and funds the cloud infrastructure at our community relies on like ForgeBox for our Package Management with CommandBox.

This layer is composed of ColdFusion components that are organized around tightly-coupled features. For example, on this blog, I have a CommentWorkflow.cfc component that has methods for adding, editing, and approving comments. At work, these workflow components can get pretty beasty, especially as a feature-area continues to expand. As a thought experiment, I wanted to consider a world in which each workflow component represented a single use-case within the application.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4437-thought-experiment-creating-single-use-case-components-in-coldfusion.htm 3 great videos to watch!!!4/2/23 - Blog - Ben Nadel - Conway's Game Of Life In Hotwire And ColdFusionConway's Game of Life is a simple, single-player game in which you define the initial state of the game and then the rest of the game is autonomously driven by a small set of rules.

However, because these versions reached end of life they are no longer receiving security patches from Adobe.One thing you can do to mitigate one of these issues is to block requests containing a variable named _cfclient. Some of the filters in FuseGuard may help prevent some attack vectors when configured to. But the best solution is to upgrade to CF2018 or 2021 and apply the patch released today.--Foundeo Inc.ICYMI - State of the CF Union 2023 ReleasedHelp us find out the state of the CF Union – what versions of CFML Engine do people use, what frameworks, tools etc.https://teratech.com/state-of-the-cf-union-2023-survey New Releases and UpdatesICYMI - New CommandBox Goodies print.tree() - https://twitter.com/bdw429s/status/1639392842656235520 print.columns() and printColumns - https://twitter.com/bdw429s/status/1639395391148810242 clipboard - https://twitter.com/bdw429s/status/163946183001074483 OpenAI-powered ChatGPT has arrived for Ortus DocumentationWe are pleased to announce a fun little project that our Patreon supports have been testing in private for a week or so.

However, because these versions reached end of life they are no longer receiving security patches from Adobe.One thing you can do to mitigate one of these issues is to block requests containing a variable named _cfclient. Some of the filters in FuseGuard may help prevent some attack vectors when configured to. But the best solution is to upgrade to CF2018 or 2021 and apply the patch released today.--Foundeo Inc.ICYMI - Authentication Bypass Vulnerability in Mura CMS and Masa CMS (CVE-2022-47003 and CVE-2022-47002)Mura CMS is a popular content management system written in ColdFusion/CFML.

Turbo Frames can be used for things like lazy-loading user-specific content for better caching and including (or "transcluding") forms from one page into another page. This latter concept - transcluding forms - can unlock a lot of different user experiences. But, rendering a form inside a Turbo Frame can make post-submission redirections more complicated. Fortunately, I recently learned about creating custom Turbo Stream actions, which can help us bridge the redirection gap in our ColdFusion applications.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4418-transcluding-a-form-into-a-turbo-frame-using-hotwire-and-lucee-cfml.htm 3/2/2023 - Blog - Ben Nadel - The User Experience (UX) Of Disabled Form ButtonsBy default, form buttons aren't disabled. When you render a form, everything "just works". That is, until, a web developer decides to get "clever" and starts disabling buttons, pending some desired form state. Unfortunately, many developers are not quite as clever as they think they are; and, buttons often remain disabled even when a form has been completed filled-out. This obviously leads to a terrible user experience (UX).https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4419-the-user-experience-ux-of-disabled-form-buttons.htm 3/2/2023 - Blog - Ben Nadel - Dynamically Adding Stimulus Controllers To Static Content Using Hotwire And Lucee CFMLAs I'm digging into the Hotwire framework, I'm trying to keep an eye on how I might eventually convert this ColdFusion blog over to using it. And, one of the things that I currently have to contend with (on this blog) is progressively enhancing the "static content" within each blog post (ex, resizing code-blocks on mouseenter). The "Stimulus way" seeks to create small, targeted controllers instead of large, over-reaching "page" controllers. As such, I wanted to see if I can dynamically attach Stimulus Controllers to targeted elements within my static content.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4420-dynamically-adding-stimulus-controllers-to-static-content-using-hotwire-and-lucee-cfml.htm 3/4/2023 - Blog - Ben Nadel - Rendering A Persistent Dismissible Banner Using Hotwire And Lucee CFMLWhen operating a

The pandemic acted as a forcing function, demonstrating that remote work isn't only possible but — in many cases and for many people — both preferable and more productive. Remote work, however, lead to an ever-more remote workforce which lead to a diversity of time zones which lead to collaboration issues. Async communication is intended to resolve some of these issues; and, to provide workers with more uninterrupted, deep-thought time. And, to be clear, I am a fan of async communication. But, I believe that there is an overused toxic form of async communication: Consensus building.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4415-async-communication-is-great-except-for-when-its-awful.htm2/14/23 - Tweet - Brad Wood - CommandBox `forgebox version-debug` commandI've added a cool little command called "forgebox version-debug" to CommandBox vNext which will help debug which package versions a semantic version range matches.https://twitter.com/bdw429s/status/1630332656658395137CFML JobsSeveral positions available on https://www.getcfmljobs.com/Listing over 52 ColdFusion positions from 32 companies across 25 locations in 5 Countries.1 new job listed this weekSenior Application Developer (Coldfusion/Lucee) - Skillcast at London, UK - https://www.getcfmljobs.com/jobs/index.cfm/united-kingdom/Sr-AppDev-CFLucee-London-UK/11556Other Job LinksThere is a jobs channel in the CFML slack team, and in the Box team slack now tooForgeBox Module of the WeekLogstashThis module provides a common interface for sending Logstash logs to elasticsearch.

Lucee has adopted the configImport approach which @bdw429s pioneered and it is now supported it natively, via several methods There are some additional methods for deploying extensions / updates via the /deploy folder on startup For warming up images for fast deployment, there LUCEE_ENABLE_WARMUP env var And there are also startup listeners which can be used to programmatically configure your Lucee server using good old CFML Don’t forget Lucee is open source, so anything you can do via the Lucee admin, can be done in cfml! Lastly, for running CI with Lucee, we have developed the script-runner, which can be used to run test cases in CI, it’s headless, so there’s no http server, but it’s super quick. (Pretty much all the Lucee repos use script-runner to run their tests using Github Actions) https://dev.lucee.org/t/how-do-we-make-automating-builds-and-deployments-of-lucee-applications-rock/194/132/19/23 - Blog - Ben Nadel - Updating Permanent Elements On Page Navigation In Hotwire Turbo And Lucee CFMLIn a Hotwire Turbo application, when you add the data-turbo-permanent attribute to an element (accompanied by an id attribute), this element will be cached and then replaced into subsequent pages that contain an element with the same id. Element permanence is awesome when you want to, for example, lazy-load a Turbo-Frame once and then have it persist across pages. But, it means that updating the content of said element gets tricky. I wanted to explore this idea in the context of "Toast Messages" in Lucee CFML.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4410-updating-permanent-elements-on-page-navigation-in-hotwire-turbo-and-lucee-cfml.htmCFML JobsSeveral positions available on https://www.getcfmljobs.com/Listing over 51 ColdFusion positions from 31 companies across 24 locations in 5 Countries.1 new job listed this weekColdfusion Consultant/Developer - OUTSIDE IR35 at London, UK - https://www.getcfmljobs.com/jobs/index.cfm/united-kingdom/Coldfusion-ConsultantDeveloper-OUTSIDE-IR35-at-London/11555Adobe posted of a job posting at Sees Candies for a CFML Developerhttps://seescandiescareers.mua.hrdepartment.com/hr/ats/Posting/view/9577Other Job LinksThere is a jobs channel in the CFML slack team, and in the Box team slack now tooForgeBox Module of the Weekaws-cfml aws-cfml is a CFML library for interacting with AWS APIs.It requires Lucee 4.5+ or ColdFusion 11+.It currently supports the following APIs: cognitoIdentity dynamodb ec2 ec2 auto-scaling groups elasticsearch elastictranscoder polly rekognition s3 secretsmanager sns ssm sqs translate Note: It has full support for the AWS S3 and AWS DynamoDB REST APIs.

For the most part, this value is either never set (which then uses the default timeout defined in the ColdFusion admin); or, it's set once at the top of the request. Sometimes, however, I run into situations where I need to dynamically update the timeout of the current page. Unfortunately, the CFSetting tag doesn't support this; as such, I wanted to outline ways in which this can be hacked into the request in either Adobe ColdFusion or Lucee CFML.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4405-extending-the-current-request-timeout-in-coldfusion-cfml.htmRelated: https://ortussolutions.atlassian.net/browse/COLDBOX-1188?jql=text%20~%20%22requesttimeout%222/11/23 - Blog - Ben Nadel - Exploring Turbo Drive Back-Button Caching Behavior In Lucee CFMLWhen you enable Hotwire Turbo Drive in your ColdFusion application, link clicks and form submissions are intercepted and then subsequently executed via the fetch() API. Hotwire continues to maintain expected browser behaviors by pushing the relevant URLs onto the browser's History API. Then, if the user presses the Back Button, Turbo Drive pulls the previous rendering out of its cache and restores the previous <body> content and scroll offset. In this post, I want to take a closer look at when the page cache is populated; and, what events get triggered when a cached page is re-rendered.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4404-exploring-turbo-drive-back-button-caching-behavior-in-lucee-cfml.htm2/13/23 - Blog - Ben Nadel - Using Stimulus To Preload Links On Hover In Hotwire And Lucee CFMLFrom what I've been reading, when building a Stimulus controller in Hotwire, the key to success is thinking in terms of small, composable behaviors. So, instead of creating a controller that manages an entire View, we should seek to extract aspects of said view that might make sense in a wider variety of use-cases. To practice this mindset, I wanted to try building a Stimulus controller that will preload a given link target if the user hovers over an element for some period of time. And, of course, we'll be doing this in Lucee CFML.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4407-using-stimulus-to-preload-links-on-hover-in-hotwire-and-lucee-cfml.htmAs before, if Ben’s experiments with Hotwire interest you, also check out CBWire (https://cbwire.ortusbooks.com/) by Ortus Solutions.  And if you prefer to write your views in JavaScript, check out cbInertia (https://forgebox.io/view/cbInertia) by Ortus Solutions.2/8/23 - Blog - Zac Spitzer - Lucee 5.3.10.120 Stable ReleaseFollowing up on the initial 5.3.10.97 release, our second 5.3.10 release is mostly about further improving the `configImport()` support and minor bug fixes, including fixing installing extensions via an environment variable.LDEV-2871 - When there aren’t any debugging logs, show debugging statusLDEV-2900 - adding to cookie scope doesn’t inherit application cfcookie tag defaultsLDEV-3720 - Log trace of cflocation and allow option to AbortLDEV-4261 - build must always display Caused by: sections of java stacktracesLDEV-4297 - NPE lucee.runtime.config.ConfigWebUtil.loadAddionalConfig(ConfigWebUtil.java:783)LDEV-4289 - configImport isn’t importing s3 mappingsLDEV-4306 1 - SetLocale(“English (UK)") does not set United Kingdom locale.LDEV-

According to David Heinemeier Hansson (DHH), the Turbo family of features should get you 90% of the way through your application development. But, that last 10% of features needs to be implemented with custom JavaScript. And for this, Hotwire provides Stimulus controllers; or, what the Rails community refers to as "JavaScript sprinkles". To start looking at Stimulus, I wanted to create a demo that takes a ColdFusion provided UTC millisecond value and renders it in the user's local timezone.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4401-rendering-a-local-timestamp-with-stimulus-using-hotwire-and-lucee-cfml.htm 2/6/23 - Blog - Charlie Arehart - New URL for signing up to the CFML Slack: cfml-slack.netTLDR; the URL for joining the CFML Slack workspace and channels has changed. If you want to join the CFML Slack, use the form at cfml-slack.net. As some may have noticed, the old URL for joining (cfml-slack.herokuapp.com) no longer works.Since it's mentioned in many places on the web, I wanted to help spread this news. This cfml-slack.net URL replaces that, while the URL for the CFML Slack channel itself is unchanged: cfml.slack.com.https://www.carehart.org/blog/2023/2/6/new_url_for_cfml_slack_signup2/6/23 - Blog - Charlie Arehart - FusionReactor 9.2.1 update releasedIf you're using FusionReactor, note that a new 9.2.1 update was released last week, Jan 31, with a couple of bug fixes--including one where you may need to add a JVM arg to prevent an error, in a certain case as I will discuss.

Hotwire takes that concept a step further with Turbo Streams. In response to a POST form submission, a series of <turbo-stream> elements can define multiple, independent mutations that Hotwire will perform on the currently rendered view. I wanted to explore the Turbo Streams mechanics in Lucee CFML.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4400-dynamically-updating-views-with-turb

(Note that prior to Java 9, releases of Java were known technically as 1.x, so 8 is referred to in resources below as 1.8.)https://www.carehart.org/blog/2023/1/17/java_updates_Jan_2023 ICYMI and CLARIFICATION: Beware that latest Oracle JDK installers will REMOVE older JDK installs of that versionHere's something new to beware if you may run the Oracle JDK installer for the recently updated Java 11 or 17, whether on Windows, macOS, or via RPM: the new Oracle jdk installer WILL REMOVE any older previous versions of that JVM version created by previous JDK installers of the same major version. (Note that this issue does not affect those who implement java by extracting it from a compressed file, like a zip or tar.gz.)Fortunately for some, this issue does NOT affect those running Java 8 or below, or Java 19 or abovehttps://www.carehart.org/blog/2023/1/23/beware_latest_oracle_JDK_installers_will_remove_older_JDK_installs Clarification from Charlie regarding the Podcast discussion of this post last week: Brad said that this behavior is “not new”, and I have to say: that’s not correct. As the post goes on to clarify, this change IS documented in last week’s release notes for the Oracle JVM. I’ve updated my post with this new paragraph at the top to clarify that point:Since I posted this last night, I've heard some people assert "this is not new behavior: Java's always popped up and offered to remove old versions". Those folks are misunderstanding something: that was true of past JRE installers (like in Java 8 and earlier, which don't exist for Java 11), but it was never the case for Oracle JDK installers (even for Java 8). THAT's what's new about the JDK 11 and 17 installers, and it's DOCUMENTED in the release notes, as I discuss below. But it may surprise those who never saw a JDK installer do that, thus this post. (The rest of this post remains unchanged.)Thanks Charlie for Clarifiying!ICYMI - CBWire Poll about a CFCasts SeriesI’m in the planning stage of developing an ongoing video series for CBWIRE on https://cfcasts.com/.

The typical way in which we do this is to call createObject("java") and pass in a Java class name. Historically, I've tended to cache the returned Java class value, operating under the assumption that createObject() had a lot of overhead. But, I don't think I ever based this assumption on any concrete evidence. As such, I wanted to perform a trite performance exploration regarding the createObject() function in Lucee CFML.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4387-testing-performance-overhead-of-creating-java-classes-in-lucee-cfml.htmUpdates about using `createObject` with 3rd-party jars:https://luceeserver.atlassian.net/browse/LDEV-2952https://luceeserver.atlas

This ColdFusion component allows us to tap into events such as application, session, and request initialization. It also allows us to define a global error handler via the onError() method. This method, however, is tricky to use because it means — by definition — that the error in question was not handled properly (by lower-level code). This makes the state of the request very unpredictable; which means that we need to introspect the request before we attempt to output any error message. https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4378-showing-an-error-message-in-the-onerror-method-in-application-cfc-in-cfml.htm CFML JobsSeveral positions available on https://www.getcfmljobs.com/Listing over 38 ColdFusion positions from 25 companies across 22 locations in 5 Countries.1 new jobs listed this weekColdFusion Developer (Remote)Fort Washington, PA,  United StatesM3 USAhttps://www.getcfmljobs.com/jobs/index.cfm/united-states/CFDev-USRemote/11542Other Job Links Ortus Solutions https://www.ortussolutions.com/about-us/careers  There is a jobs channel in the CFML slack team, and in the box team slack now too ForgeBox Module of the WeekcbfsThe cbfs module will enable you to abstract ANY filesystem within your ColdBox applications.
