Raúl Riera and I collaborated on a new tutorial in the reference guide called Wheels, AJAX, and You. The tutorial discusses 3 different ways to request and receive data from the controller using asynchronous JavaScript.
While much of this may be standardized in future releases of Wheels, this tutorial gives you some fairly simple options for integrating AJAX functionality into your Wheels 1.0.x applications today.

This blog has been a little quiet lately, but believe me that plenty has been going on behind the scenes.
We’ve released a new section on our site for Screencasts. I’ve started a series on building a fake social networking site, and the first 2 episodes are there:

Mike Henke and Clarke Bishop have been writing some great how-to series on using ColdFusion on Wheels. Both do a nice job of showing the steps involved with building simple sample applications.

As a follow-up to the Hello World tutorial, we’ve just released a tutorial called Hello Database.
As its name suggests, the point of this new tutorial is to help you get a jump start on learning about Wheels’s ORM functionality. This is not an exhaustive walk-through but rather a taste so you can dip your toe into the pool.
If you’ve been on the fence on whether you’d like to try ColdFusion on Wheels, give the tutorial a read.

Right now is a pretty good time to be learning ColdFusion on Wheels. You can review the documentation that’s been written and learn as we write new chapters. So far, I’m guessing that it would be pretty easy to keep up with us!
If you haven’t been keeping up with the conversation in the discussion group, we’ve been producing some great new material. Up in the Docs are 2 new videos and 2 new written chapters.

[Update: A newer version of this has been released as a "Hello World" tutorial. We've updated with that with a link to the new video rather than the old one.]
Here is the first Wheels video tutorial. To be honest it’s the first screen cast I’ve created also, but I think the quality turned out pretty good. This tutorial covers how to download and install the latest Wheels build, create a couple of pages, add dynamic content to the pages, link the pages together, and finally modify the default framework settings so one of the new pages is displayed as the default page.
