They remind you of some big news with Adobe, the Adobe Docker images that were previously stored on binTray are no longer available there. They remind you of a recent Webinar from Fusion Reactor, including the link to watch it on YouTube. They discuss the API Webinar series by Adobe, 7 webinars with only 1 remaining, spread out over the last 2 months... and share the link to previous videos in the series. They discuss Brad's upcoming Ortus Webinar. They discuss the latest CFCasts content, and some upcoming conferences. They mention a special survey about the upcoming Into the Box conference, trying to gauge whether people are willing to travel for an in person conference or not. They spotlight a lot of great blog posts, tweets, videos and podcasts, too many to list, so listen to the show. They announce some jobs from getCfmlJobs.com. They show off the ForgeBox module of the Week, CommandBox Convert by Scott Steinbeck - Commandbox Convert is a module for working with excel/csv data. The module utilizes the amazing lucee-spreadsheet created by Julian Halliwell. The module tries to handle some of the common use cases for working with table like data coming from a csv, excel, or any other valid JSON type data like an array, array of arrays, array of structs, or a JSON file. This week's VS Code Tip of the week is VS Code's built-in screencast mode - which displays your keypresses and mouse clicks. This is useful when presenting VS Code to an audience or when recording videos of VS Code being used. They thanked all their Patreons, but also talked a little information about perks for their Patreon supporters.
