[CFL2M] How To Escape Legacy Code Hell

*Note: You're reading a lesson from our ColdFusion Legacy 2 Modernization E-Course [CFL2M]. Interested in getting the full course? Click here to sign up.

If you’re not aware of your app challenges, it’s nearly impossible to know where to begin. 

Fret not. Lesson one was all about spaghetti code. This email is about getting to know you and what’s actually going on.

To help you, I need to know a little about you. Please hit ‘reply’ to this email. Introduce yourself and answer the following: 

  • What's your biggest CF challenge?

I personally read and reply to every email.

If you’re using CF without an expert on your team, things may seem a bit messy right now. 

Changes take way too long. More bugs than you know what to deal with. Weak security. You may even have that nagging feeling that you’re falling further behind.

It’s what (Frodo and) I call Legacy Code Hell. 

The good news:  There’s a way out. That’s what this course is all about. 

A lot of people are still doing stuff the old-fashioned way. They feel overwhelmed, afraid of failure, and anxious anytime they change anything in their environment. 

I’m here to help. This email course is designed to take your CF app all the way to Modernization. 

But that means you’ll need to actually take action. Reading these emails alone will not get you results, just like Gandalf’s guidance is useless without taking the first step out of the Shire (you have to follow the path and face the trials).

This is a DIY course, but if you want done-for-you, then we’re here.

And, please add [email protected] to your contacts so these emails don't go to your spam. 

Need help with that? Here are the instructions.

Let’s begin with some positive momentum! I look forward to hearing from you. 

Next time: A lesson on how to prevent app crashes and slowdowns! 

Wishing you a productive day ahead!
