Workshop Description

This 2 day workshop will walk us through creating a Quiz Game app with a ColdBox REST API backend and a VueJS Application, written in the Quasar Framework.

We will start with the concept, design our database, plan our API, write some tests, build our API, create our Quasar Framework App, and write some VueJS to hit those API Endpoints.

We'll tie in CBSecurity, Resourceful Routes, OpenAPI Swagger Documentation, Validation on the API side. We will use Vue-Router, Vuex, Axios, Vue Valiation and the Quasar Framework to build our interactive and modern front end. The end result will be a modern application, with all the tools you need to start creating your own.

This Quiz game will have a real-world use case, as it brings back to life an old ColdFusion / ColdBox concept, delivered in a fresh new way.
