What is CFCamp?

CFCamp has been created as a grassroots initiative to provide training and networking opportunities for beginner and advanced level CFML, web and mobile software engineers. The conference was launched in 2008 as a single-day event with less than 100 attendees and 9 sessions.

 
Since then the event has continued to grow year-by-year in attendees and number of sessions. In the mid-2010s a pre-conference workshop day was added to the event, which has been adopted for providing half- or full-day commercial training offerings very successfully.

CFCamp now comprises two full days of main conference on Thursday and Friday and with the preceding days used for commercial workshops and training - as well as free community events. 

Some of the growth milestones were:

2008: single-day - 80 attendees and 9 sessions
2011: single-day - 120 attendees and 10+ sessions
2017: two days - 160 attendees and 20+ sessions and workshop day
2018: two days - 180 attendees and 25 sessions and multiple workshop day
2019: two days - 200+ attendees and 25+ sessions and multiple workshop day
2023: Back from a Covid-19-enforced break - two day with ~ 200 attendees, 25+ sessions and a workshop day
2024: two days - 150+ attendees and 25+ sessions and multiple workshop day

For 2025 we have a new venue hosting CFCamp, the Atomis Hotel Munich Airport in Oberding. It’s a very convenient location with its proximity to the airport and hotel rooms for attendees on-site.

This year we are expecting 150+ attendees due to a heightened demand for community meetings after multiple years of hibernation and a widened focus of the conference and expanded content coverage to CFML-related topics like cloud infrastructure and mobile development in the context of CFML as a technology stack.
