About GoodClic and CFWheels:
CFWheels is an important part of the GoodClic technology stack. In fact, we would not have been able to build a quality application without CFWheels. Its MVC approach to coldfusion development was pivotal.
Our development team is geographically diverse. Our UI/UX development team is in Dallas. Our mobile development team is in Nashville and our backend team is in Little Rock Arkansas. CFWheels made dividing the development tasks easy. The Nashville and Dallas teams worked on the views. The Little Rock team was able to focus on the controllers and models.
In addition to ease of management, the dev team was able to wrap a lot of functionality in relatively simple model calls. For instance, adding a new credit card: we wrapped basic validation as well as credit card pre-authorization into a callback. This approach greatly simplified our code. So, when we switched to allowing our clients to integrate their own payment gateway into GoodClic – we only changed code in one place.
Of all the benefits CFWheels brought to the GoodClic project, perhaps most important was the deep history inherent in the ColdFusion language. As a result, we had access to thousands of developer blog posts, great tags and functions that only come with a mature language.
