ColdBox 3.0 Modules Contest

Create a ColdBox 3.0.0 module that is a fully functional application that can be portable for any ColdBox 3.0 application. Here are some guidelines the ColdBox team will be evaluating the module on

  • Download ColdBox

  • The code must reside on either github or a public repository so it is publicly accessible

  • The user must create a forgebox entry and submit the module code to it: http://coldbox.org/forgebox

  • The more internal libraries it uses the more points it gets: LogBox, MockBox, WireBox, CacheBox

  • The module should do something productive, no say hello modules accepted

  • Best practices on MVC separation of concerns

  • Portability

  • Documentation (You had that one coming!!) as it might need DB setup or DSN setup

  • Be creative!

  • Make sure it works!
