UKCFUG Event: Mura CMS + FW/1 - Thursday 24th May 2012 - May 15

Our next meeting is 24th May 2012 on Mura CMS + Fw/1

Mura CMS might have a ton of features right out of the box, but as it is also the perfect platform for custom sites large and small you are occasionally going to want it to do even more. Whether you're looking at integrating existing applications or creating something completely new, Mura is designed to make your life as a developer as easy as possible. In this presentation we'll look at using FW/1 to create fast but comprehensive extensions to your Mura CMS platform.

Grant Shepert is a long-time and avid fan of ColdFusion and web development in general. He contributes regularly to the CFML open source community, and is a die-hard fan of the CMS that saved him from switching to the dark side (PHP). As a member of the Blue River team, he has contributed to several key pieces of the Mura CMS platform, including site bundles and the drag-drop form builder, and will talk endlessly about Mura if given the slightest opportunity. Consider yourself forewarned.
