At Ortus Solutions, we're excited to offer our comprehensive Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) series, designed specifically for CFML developers. Whether you're new to OOP or looking to deepen your understanding, this series led by Nolan Erck is the perfect resource to help you master both the fundamentals and advanced features.

In this series, you'll start from the basics of OOP in ColdFusion and gradually explore more advanced concepts. Topics covered include:

  • Creating CF components and understanding variable scopes.
  • Working with OOP structures such as constructors, public/private variables, and abstract classes.
  • Understanding core OOP principles like inheritance, composition, and interfaces.
  • Applying design patterns like the observer pattern and factory pattern to enhance your code structure.
  • Learning how these concepts translate to other languages like Java, C#, and C++.

No prior knowledge of ColdFusion components is required—just a basic understanding of programming concepts such as variables, functions, and control structures. Plus, you’ll get hands-on with real code demos using CommandBox to spin up ColdFusion servers.

Ready to dive in? Watch the first four episodes for free by subscribing to our YouTube channel and unlock the essential foundations of OOP in ColdFusion!

Key Takeaways:

  • Learn to write modular and scalable CFML applications.
  • Gain a strong foundation in object-oriented programming concepts.
  • Implement design patterns and best practices in your development workflow.

Introducing the BoxLang Spring Boot Starter: Dynamic JVM Templating for Spring

Spring Boot developers know the pain of evaluating view technologies. Thymeleaf is great — until you need more expressiveness. FreeMarker is powerful — until the syntax fights you. What if you could write templates in a dynamic JVM language that gives you the full power of the platform, feels natural, and requires zero setup to integrate?

Meet the BoxLang Spring Boot Starter.

Why Swiss Banks Are Modernizing CFML Platforms Without Rewrites

The growing need to evolve legacy financial platforms safely

Many Swiss banks and financial institutions still operate important systems built on ColdFusion and CFML platforms.

These systems manage a wide range of functions, including:

  • internal banking workflows
  • reporting systems
  • client portals
  • data integration platforms
  • compliance and risk management tools

In many cases, thes...

Reactive vs Proactive ColdFusion Support: Why Waiting for an Outage Is the Most Expensive Strategy

Reactive vs Proactive ColdFusion Support: Why Waiting for an Outage Is the Most Expensive Strategy

Many ColdFusion environments operate in a reactive mode without realizing it.

Everything seems fine… until something breaks.

A server crashes.

Performance drops suddenly.

An integration stops working.

A security audit reveals missing patches.

At that point the response is urgent:

“Can someone help us fix this now?”

Emergency support is sometimes unavoidable. But when reactive intervention becomes the norm, it usually means something deep...
