"Low-Code for the ColdFusion Developer", with Andrew Duthie

We're happy to announce another session of the Online ColdFusion Meetup, "Low-Code for the ColdFusion Developer – What is it, and Why you should care" with G. Andrew Duthie, to be held Thursday June 11 at 12pm US Eastern Time, UTC-5. After a quiet period, this is the first of a few sessions planned for the coming weeks.

We welcome and indeed seek presentations from anyone wishing to speak about any projects regarding or tangentially related to CF. For more, see https://speak.coldfusionmeetup.com.

TOPIC DESCRIPTION: (provided by the speaker)

ColdFusion developers know what it means to be productive. Delivering data-driven websites and solutions is familiar territory. But whether you’re an employee in the enterprise, or a contractor seeking out your next gig, you may start hearing about Low-Code, if you haven’t already. Maybe your company has decided to try it out, or maybe it’s just something a customer asked about, but if you listen to the analysts, Low-Code is a growing segment of the IT market, and a market shaping up to be in the tens of billions of dollars.

Does that mean you should give up ColdFusion? Of course not. But it never hurts to have additional tools to bring to bear on a given problem, and a better understanding of other tools can help inform how you approach what you do today, regardless of what tools you use to do it.

In this session, OutSystems Developer Advocate G. Andrew Duthie will provide an overview of Low-Code, an approach to application development that emphasizes a visual approach to developing screens and logic. He’ll show what it brings to the table and demonstrate how OutSystems implements Low-Code, and he will provide a broader look at the Low-Code (and No-Code) landscape, including other players to be aware of in this area.

Bring your curiosity and your questions, and yes, you should even bring your skepticism. All are welcome!
