This year's programme was once again open for participation from the CFML and wider development communities. If you're interested in what the Call For Papers for CFCamp 2023 looked like - it's still online on papercall.io (but now closed as of mid-March 2023).
So far, we have confirmed and announced 21 talks. There are still a few more to come, stay tuned.
The sessions will be assigned to slots and rooms a bit closer to the event.

The ColdBox cbSecurity module is a collection of modules to help secure your ColdBox applications. From security contexts, rules, annotations, headers and even password generation. cbSecurity will help you secure all things.
Containers have become the cornerstone of modern development, but hardcoded configurations can complicate deployment and limit their usefulness.
Join us for an enlightening keynote presentation that will demonstrate how software developers and emerging technologies have a rich history of collaboration, even when it initially appeared that new advancements might threaten the profession.
Currently, the presenter is using custom created ETL to load data from different sources into the database. Does it work?
This talk will uncover the brutal truth about Agile software development and software architecture! Jafar will share real-world examples about ugly truths and harsh realities of these practices. Through raw and unfiltered insights and case studies learn how to turn the pitfalls into opportunities.
Cypress.io is an awesome frontend testing tool that can run automated tests with the help of embedded browsers and their APIs. Check if your website does what it says with scripts in an easy-to-learn JS syntax and watch cypress open a browser and magically check your site as if it were a user.
The JavaScript frontend scene is exciting, but maybe you don’t want to write an API just to use the new shiny. Enter InertiaJS, a new framework that allows you to use Vue as your view layer while keeping your existing backend. Come see how to take advantage of this using ColdBox, Vue, and InertiaJS.
What’s new in CF2023–that you may not hear so much about? With each release, certain “key” features get lots of attention, but there are always little “hidden gems” that may excite you even more.

We’ll look at what you’re doing right… and wrong when storing your user passwords. We’ll look at the most basic forms of password storage and move to more secure methods, discussing advantages and disadvantages of each method, including covering high-visibility hacks that have hit real companies.
React is a “View” framework and makes powerful JavaScript based applications for the browser. CFML is a server side “Controller” language and can rapidly create powerful and secure APIs to be used by outside applications. Here, we’ll create a React app and a CFML API for a working local ecosystem.
In this talk, Alex and Dominic discuss the problems and solutions they have used to efficiently run and scale their vast CFML estate across different regions in Kubernetes using Preside, Gitlab, ELK, Grafana and more!
It doesn’t matter what language you use, security weaknesses will find a way to show up. In this talk we’ll look at 25 types software weaknesses that cause the most security vulnerabilities. For each weakness we’ll look at how CFML might be impacted and most importantly to avoid it.
Data collection done by people is a wasteful act, and could result in a duplicated work. Gathering info for tasks, for code readability or for infrastructure maintenance - Documentation plays a crucial part in that. How can we write technical docs in an easy way & why should we? find out here!
