Build Secure MVC ColdFusion Applications

In this 2-day workshop you will learn how to build a secure and scalable ColdFusion MVC application. We will design a twitter like application (SoapBox) and build it using the most popular ColdFusion MVC Framework: ColdBox. We will design the client in UML and then build it using object orientation, database migrations, fluent query builders and then secure it using our rule engine: cbSecurity. We will also leverage behavior driven development (BDD) to build the entire client using a feature-test-driven approach.

Modernize your skills and applications with modern techniques and tooling.

Pre-Requisites

  • Beginner to Intermediate ColdBox knowledge
  • CommandBox CLI Installed
  • A local database server - MySQL 5.7
