ColdBox makes creating server-side apps easy, but what about the client-side? Front-end JavaScript frameworks like Vue and React are powerful, yet they also introduce complexity and a significant learning curve when creating our apps.What if you could create apps that look and feel like your Vue and React web apps but are written with CFML. Impossible, you say?
