CMS- the winner is &amp;quot;don't use at all&amp;quot;&amp;amp;nbsp;  The second is custom homegrown CMS   Mura might’ve dropped because it went commercial JavaScript libraries- almost 90$ of CFers use a library of some kind  JQuery still number one   CSS  Top CSS library is Bootstrap again   If you're not using CSS, maybe this year is a good time to pick up a little CSS allows tailwind. To make your apps look more modern and be responsive CFC dependency injection  Why even use it?   Which persistence frameworks do you use?  Most don't use them What is it exactly?  Way to help you store data somewhere, persistently these will help your life, and they'll make it easy to load data, retrieve data search for data, and make you really happy with all that   ORM / Hibernate the most familiar one A lot of people love writing SQL   What testing and mocking frameworks do you use?  Why would I even want for those all those people who answered none to this question? What’s the benefit? What were this testing and mocking stuff all these other people are doing?  Half the people in ColdFusion aren't testing and the other half are lying about it   Selenium is the most used testing framework   CF Mobile development frameworks  For the longest time, the native was native Android; native iOS was a lot higher than in previous years. So now we’re down to basically 4% and 5%. And actually, Ionic is higher, flutter is higher put overs, right at 4.9%, as well, progressive web apps is, you know, probably the leader there. They’ve got to the point where you can choose Chrome or something else inside your apps Half of the people aren’t doing mobile But the half that is 80% of them are doing, basically some version of sort of transpired WebView style A fair number of people these days are running a responsive browser version of our app, and it runs on the phone just fine. And you can save it to the desktop or the phone    Survey asking about health issues,  People have backache and neck ache a lot of developers have all those things But the number one thing they listed was stress. And, I'm all for let’s get rid of the stress. Let’s get rid of the health issues that developers have. Be healthy, happy developers.
