Well, the time is nearly here. We are collecting emails of interested users.We are starting with a very small closed beta just to shake any lingering bugs out. This is happening over the weekend.Once we feel comfortable, users who have signed up for this beta (form link below) will slowly begin getting invites for a pre-release forum dedicated to the full closed beta program. This is likely to occur early to mid next week.We need people who are fired up, willing to put in time testing and provide us with solid, informative feedback. The full, open launch of the product is coming shortly after Dev Week but this is your opportunity to get a chance to see it early, test it and help us make it as awesome as possible.Please note: There may be bugs. This should not be used in production during the time of the beta testing. I shouldn't have to tell you that lol. But here we are. I use this tool already in my day to day. But your workflow might be different. We will be adding people slowly, so if you don't get an email early next week, just give it a moment. The earlier you sign up, the more likely you get in.Sign up here: https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=Wht7-jR7h0OUrtLBeN7O4VmPZrcheetIstWzdVorFtxURjVKSE5KNFZSSzg4MzdHUzRaOTZBQ1Q3SS4u&fbclid=IwAR3eZ4hD9cSXJKuME2mIeOYp8c4j-LT0mr_iCzPnSU52NkBdBxU-Az5abLg ICYMI - ColdBox 6.7.0 ReleasedI am incredibly excited to announce the release of ColdBox v6.7.0 and its standalone companion libraries: CacheBox, LogBox and WireBox.

To do this, we will analyze and plan our app, starting with the User Stories, and then mapping that to Database, Models, and we can start building out our API, using CRUDDY by Design philosophies. We’ll shell out our TDD style Tests, and then create a couple of resources and routes.Meetup Link: https://www.meetup.com/coldfusionmeetup/events/286853927/ICYMI - Live Stream Series - Koding with the Kiwi + FriendsSpecial Guest - Daniel Garcia - talking about OpenAPI and Swagger DocumentationDaniel and Gavin worked through a lot of content, what is the OpenAPI and Swagger Doc, some tools like editor.swagger.io and Daniel's CBSwaggerUI module. They looked at how to add tags, security, parameters, requestbody, responses and different ways to organize your apidocs after great questions from one of the Patreons, David Bellanger. David prompted them to go down a rabbit hole, but opened an interesting train of thought, with modularized tests and apidocs, where the goal is encapsulation.
