I'm here with Daniel Garcia, and he and I are going to talk about an amazing cold fusion conference coming up real soon. Now called into the box. You may think it only covers box things, but actually covers all kinds of cold fusion things as well. And if you don't know Daniel, he's been doing cold fusion for decades now, probably started bringing in web tech. Yes, decades started in 1997 with web tech, and he loves doing it. He's also a dad got an 11 year old son who's a musician, and he's the manager, or he likes calling him himself, the dad, manager of his son. And he's also a podcaster. DJ has a wicked sense of humor. So welcome Daniel. Daniel Garcia 0:59 Thank you for having me. Michaela, it's been years since, yes, since Michaela Light 1:03 we lost on the show. So what is this? Into the box conference? For people, I know what it is, but maybe some people listening don't well into Daniel Garcia 1:13 the box. So first of all, my name is Daniel gersim With orti solutions.

And so will be a lot of things about cold box and command box, and how many box things are these days? Every time I turn around, it seems there's another box, cold fusion library or tool released. Well, Daniel Garcia 2:10 the quick answer is, I don't know, and I'm gonna get made fun of for that leader by my team, in a good way, but there's a lot of boxes there are. And because not just the main core products, we also have a lot of modules and all sorts of things to get with it, I should have been more prepared. Michaela, I'm sorry Michaela Light 2:30 if you want that's okay, but there's more than 20, I Daniel Garcia 2:36 think, right there are a lot the main ones that people know are going to be cold box, command box. Love command box. We love cold box. Dude, content box, test box, stash box, all these, well, they could just go to the website and look at them, but that's less than just no
