I use fusebox and have for some time. Once you dive in and really start understanding it you will see what all the hype is about. Fusebox 3 is even better and makes code much more reusable at an application level much more so then Fusebox 2 was. Also once you get the hang of it you can code up sites; I think, faster then doing it other ways. Your code is broken down into smaller more manageable chunks which makes trouble shooting easier and faster. The biggest thing is that it's just a methodology, if something does not fit, or you don't understand it, your not bound to using it. But using something as a standard is better then using nothing. I also recommend it to people who are brand new to CF, it seems to make the learning curve a bit easier also.
Just some of my .02 on the matter...

I've seen most of the presentations on www.fusebox.org and understand what Fusebox is (otherwise I really wouldn't be considering learning it!!) - I was more after opinions about using it from people who have some depth of experience with it - pros and cons type of thing. > 2.there is a great book on fusebox called.... 'Fusebox: mothodology and > techniques' by steve nelson and craig girard. I know this book is around - I had just read so-so to bad reviews on Amazon.com. You say it's great - why? Any other opinions? Thanks for any feedback, - Gyrus ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
