Description

Create the newbies ultimate guide. Some good pointers are below by Josen Ruiseco:


  1. Installation tutorial (I think you already have this).

  1. A tutorial covering the creation of a simple non-database site. Creating header and footer views, then static text (like a brochure site).

  1. Next I would want to see how to bring various views together in a single page/template.

  1. Then I would introduce database interactivity in the way of forms, selects, inserts, and updates.

  1. Then a session management / login tutorial.

  1. Get more advanced from there...

All of this being done in the ColdBox way of course, and being very elementary in its approach (i.e. Detailed explanations of everything - A view is a snippet of code that does...)

The ColdFusion Application Development books are what I cut my teeth on years ago. Perhaps matching that progression in terms of difficulty might be a good approach.

A good set of very basic tutorials could go a long way in helping folks choose ColdBox as their framework of choice.
