How is Cold Fusion different than other Web application tools?
Cold Fusion takes a unique approach to Web application development, which reflects our belief that creating sophisticated Web applications should not require advanced programming skills. Instead of requiring that developers become experts in complicated programming languages like Visual Basic, Java, or C++, Cold Fusion encapsulates the functionality provided by these languages into easy-to-understand server-side tags that look like HTML tags. When you develop with Cold Fusion you design your application in the same way that your users will use it — as pages. This approach makes the applications easier to develop, understand, and maintain.
