Book review: Adam Tuttle's newest book

G'day:
Adam's been busy recently. You'll've heard about his new book "REST Web APIs: The Book" which is being released soon - I'll have a review up and a competition to win a copy next week - but he's also released the first book dedicated to ColdFusion 11's newest marquee feature: CFClient.

I know I have derided CFClient a lot, but it does have its good bits, and Adam has worked through them all and put a fairly accessible book together. Granted it's not very long, but for something that focuses on a single tag, I think that's fair enough. It's free and open source, so you should go get it, and give it a read. It might make you think again about whether or not to use CFClient. I have to admit it did give me pause for thought.

Go grab it from it's official website now (it's just a PDF): "CFClient The Good Parts".

I think Abram Adams (of trycf.com fame) said it best in his review when he said:

I felt like I was looking into the minds of Adobe engineers

It's exactly this attention to detail Adam Tuttle captures in this latest book.

I'll get back to you about the REST book next week. The CFClient book'll keep you going until then.

Cheers.
