Thank you to everyone who attended my WebSockets presentation at the ColdFusion Summit. It was incredible to see such a full room and feel the excitement in the air. Your enthusiasm truly made the experience special, and it’s clear there is a strong interest in leveraging WebSockets with ColdFusion.
Unfortunately, I ran out of time before I could do the live demo section, which is always the highlight of the presentation. As promised, here is a video that covers everything I would have done in the live demo section of the presentation.
Below are links to the demo code and additional projects featured in the video, designed to help you get started with WebSockets in ColdFusion.
- Presentation Slides
The slides from my presentation, which provide an overview of WebSockets, their functionality in ColdFusion, practical tips, and key points to watch out for. - ColdFusion Summit 24 Demo Code
This repository contains all the source code used in the demo, including setup instructions and example WebSocket interactions to help you get started. - AdvancedSocket
A library designed to help maintain WebSocket subscriptions through various failure points, ensuring stable and reliable connections. - ColdFusion WebSockets Console
A drop in console to assist in debugging and monitoring WebSocket activity.
I am sure I will have the opportunity to present this topic again, and I am considering splitting it into two sessions to cover the content more effectively. If that sounds appealing to you, please let me know by leaving a comment.
Your feedback would be greatly appreciated!
If you are interested in having me present this topic at your user group, feel free to contact me!
