Charlie Arehart - CF Updates Temporarily Missing - Get them here
Adobe’s Jar files are temp gone, so the updates menu in the admin won’t work, and the Adobe website does not have them either. Charlie has added them all to CFML Repo ( a project Gavin started years ago ) and they can be trusted, as much as you trust Charlie and Gavin.

ForgeBox Module of the Week
commandbox-cfformat
Type: CommandBox Module
This module registers a cfformat command in CommandBox that can be used to format CFML components.
At Into the Box a lot of people were playing with this, integrating it with VS Code to format on save, like some Javascript tools. Gone are the days where formatting is the reason your pull request code review gets rejected.
Author: John Berquist
Install: box install commandbox-cfformat
