demassoDevelopment of a CMS based on ColdFusion
Aug. 2007 - Oct. 2015So, why re-invent the wheel? I know there already are fantastic and easy to integrate CMS systems. But none exactly fits my needs, and as a ColdFusion developer myself, I just wanted to use my own system from now on. Also, this CMS is an ideal case study on CF8 and one more proof that you actually can develop a complete CMS from scratch, with only one developer and in less than one month of time. The system is completely customizable from lay-out to everything, integrating blog, agenda, news feeds with comments and file downloads, reviews, product catalog with rating and reviewing system, shop with cart and payment integration, photo/video galleries, Ad sense and You Tube integration, user log-in with user roles...
Future developments will include a forum, Ajax user interface, RSS syndication and some more ideas I have yet to think of.
