Getting Started Notes
- Really, the first step is done to get the create tables sql script so we can create our Litepost tables and so you can review other frameworks implementation of Litepost. You could grab blogTables.sql and run it.
- I skipped showing setting up a ColdFusion instance and creating the Litepost datasource for time purposes.
- The scaffolding plugin will generate the create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) functionality for you in a few seconds.
Creating CRUD in a few seconds Outline
