Framework One is still up there, but it doesn't have the same support now that Sean Corefield moved on, and then CFwheels has been revived in that doing well, too..." Show notes What is Into The Box conference? Started with ColdBox Developer Week, then Ortus Developer Week. 2022 is the 9th edition. Started as a pre-conference before CFObjective Houston 2016 was the first ITB standing on it’s own legs without piggy backing onto another Conference. 1 day before a 3 day conference was tough, we moved so we could get 2 days. We have PLENTY to TALK ABOUT - so didn’t take us long to need more than 2 days in our own conference. Box products and general CF topics Why did we need our own conference? Made a name for ourselves at Ortus at first with Documentation, and now through tools Great way to network as a Professional Open Source company, meeting clients and our contributors. ColdFusion as a whole, likes to keep most talks framework agnostic, so we needed our own conference to show all of the content we get demands for. Every year is improving. Great response when we offered one day workshops, and in the past even 2 days of workshops, plus 2 days of the conference, 4 great days of content, and the attendees loved it. And ITs GROWN AND GROWN until this year’s conference, and it looks like the best one yet!!!!!!! Why ITB? Advantages for our company If given the chance to attend the conference, it will help our company to: Learn from ColdFusion industry leaders and Ortus core team members. Inspire new ideas to use on projects within our company. We will catch more bugs with improved testing practices earlier, costing us less money in support and maintenance. Learn more about Package Management with ForgeBox and CommandBox, to better utilize community libraries, so we don’t have to reinvent the wheel all the time. All Into the Box Attendees get a free month of CFCasts.com - Ortus’ great online video training website. All of the Into the Box Videos will be made available after the conference for attendees, so we can watch all of the sessions, even the sessions we missed in person. Advantages for you As far as why I’m excited at the prospect of attending this conference: There’s an impressive line-up of experts who are working with technologies, tools, and methodologies we use daily. Hands-on workshops with experts allow me to learn new practices and techniques and improve my skills. The friendly, intimate spirit of the conference makes it easy to interact with speakers and ask questions. As the conference attracts seasoned developers, I’m excited to learn from everyone and discover their experiences and best practices from their projects. The ColdFusion/CFML-related technology is changing rapidly; it’s essential to learn what’s possible and current in the ecosystem and dive deeper into those areas we need to explore. Opportunity to network with other ColdFusion developers.
