Workshop Description
This workshop will start with the basics of using CommandBox CLI in your everyday workflow.  We’ll focus on topics like managing servers, package management, and scripting command line tasks using CFML and Task Runners.  We’ll also cover extending the CommandBox core with modules to add your own behaviours. We will focus on hands-on exercises and will end the day with each student building their own module and publishing it to ForgeBox.

Prerequisites
A working knowledge of CommandBox’s shell and basic commands is desirable but not required
Have the latest stable version of CommandBox installed already
A GitHub account and Git CLI installed (if you want to follow along with publishing packages)
