Using Fusebox for a Simple Twitter Application »

Tags: Railo, Fusebox, Coldfusion

The sample Fusebox application, titled FritterBox (a combination of Twitter/Friends/Fusebox), uses one of the many Twitter APIs to search for a user and return a list of the people that they are following. The application is not a complex one, but something that i decided to build in order to try the Coldfusion framework, Fusebox.

Upon returning the friends that the searched user is following, the returned results are displayed in a tag cloud, with the users tweeting more appearing with larger text. There are probably flaws and errors within the application, and i have updated and fixed a few. However, if there is anything i have missed, it would be great to hear from you so that i can patch these things up.

Below are a couple of buttons that allow the demo to be tested and the source files can also be downloaded to view. The Fusebox framework will also needed to be download, and the required files can be found here and setup, as per installation instructions, in the Coldfusion admin.

Please feel free to download the source files and offer me pointers or advice on how i could have done things differently or better, as my knowledge of Fusebox is still in the early stages.

Hope you enjoy the application!
