As we're recovering from our third annual ColdBox Developers Week, we'd like to give a shout out of thanks to everyone who participated.  From our sponsors, to the speakers and the attendees; everyone helped play a part in making these 21 training sessions fun and informative.  We hope everyone had as much fun learning as we did putting this on.

Prizes

Thanks to our sponsors, Ortus Solutions and Computer Know How, we had tons of prizes to give away. Here's a recap of the winners.  Congratulations!

Furthermore, we offered additional prizes to the first two people to submit new packages to ForgeBox-- CFML's newest and most comprehensive code repository.  The following two people stepped up:

Recordings

The most common question I've gotten is, "Was this session recorded?"  The answer is, YES!  Every session including our special guest session by Gert Franz of Railo was recorded and is posted along with the slide decks over on the CBDW 2014 recording page.

CommandBox: A Smarter Foundation for BoxLang and CFML Workflows

CommandBox: A Smarter Foundation for BoxLang and CFML Workflows

In day-to-day development, some tools simply do their job… and others quietly change the way you work. CommandBox falls into the second category.

It doesn’t replace your editor, framework, or existing applications. Instead, it becomes the common ground where CFML and BoxLang development meet ,giving teams a consistent, reliable way to build, run, and evolve their projects.
