A digital transformation is sweeping Latin America and companies are opening up to innovate and modernize. Open-source technologies provide a framework and facilitate the move into said digital transformation. As such, El Salvador was chosen as the first city to host Into The Box LATAM.

ForgeBox is the NPM of the ColdFusion world, and with CommandBox, CFML's CLI, you can easily add new functionality to your project with a simple `box install packageName`. We decided to dedicate a portion of our CFML News Podcast to ForgeBox Modules. We had 30+ episodes in 2019, each with a ForgeBox Module, so we wanted to give you a way to see all of them in one place, so here they are.

Gavin and Brad host this weeks episode.They talk about CF Summit 2019 Vegas releasing more videos from the sessions on YouTube. The playlist has 16 videos already. They also remind you to sign up for Rakshith's upcoming Webinar this week on CF2020. They talk about Gavin and Michael Born's plan for a new Live Coding Series this Wednesday. They discuss deadlines for workshops and call for speakers for Into the Box 2020 in Houston in May, so try and submit your ideas, as well as the Super Early Bird tickets are now available. They also discuss some other conferences you should consider attending.

They spotlight a lot of great blog posts, tweets, videos and podcasts, too many to list, so listen to the show. They show off our ForgeBox module of the Week, Matthew Clemente's 'smmrize' wrapper and this week's VS Code extensions, CFLint by popular demand.

VS Code is the hottest IDE out there, and the most asked question I get at every conference I attend is, what VS Code extensions are you using. Since I got this question so much, we decided to dedicate a portion of our CFML News Podcast to VS Code Hints, Tips and Tricks. We had 34 episodes in 2019, each with a VS Code hint tip or trick, so we wanted to give you a way to see all of them in one place, so here they are.
