Open source platform has transformed daily operations and now supports all portals and logistics
The best features Lucee CFML Server offers include high performance, it is lightweight, it is open source so multiple people built upon it, it has great admin features where you can log in and create different processes, and it has seamless integration with Java. Out of those features, I find myself relying on high performance and ease of use the most. While using CFML since ColdFusion 7 came out, I discovered that Lucee CFML Server is very easy to understand someone else's code. It is simple and streamlined, and it is fortunate that you can quickly manipulate a program into whatever you need to do without adding so many actual layers of code.

Building AI-assisted disposable research tools has transformed how I automate data gathering
I believe IntelliSense is a good tool to work with, but I wish it could be strengthened in terms of auto suggestions and code rectification. It is efficient at this moment but has room for improvement. Firstly, there is room for improvement in IntelliSense auto suggestion and auto compilation. Although it is very good and robust, it can be improved. Secondly, I have noticed that it sometimes takes a little time to start up and can be a bit slow, perhaps because it consumes lots of RAM or CPU resources. If that can be improved, it would be beneficial. Regarding Visual Studio Professional 2022's AI capabilities, I believe it needs some improvement in accuracy and reliability. At the moment, while AI provides suggestions, I have to review and edit them. Although it has its concerns, it is good in that AI now gives a first draft, whereas in the past, humans had to write everything from scratch.

Pros

"Lucee CFML Server is a very stable and mature solution that really delivers value."
"Lucee CFML Server is very easy to understand someone else's code, it is simple and streamlined, and you can quickly manipulate a program into whatever you need to do without adding so many actual layers of code."
"Capability in Visual Studio Professional 2022 means it is supporting all things like testing for my testing purpose, as well as the development; everything is integrated in Visual Studio Professional 2022."
"Visual Studio Professional 2022 is a fully functional IDE with advanced capabilities that provide an edge over other platforms."
"Visual Studio has pretty good support for Git conflict resolving features."
"The benefits that Visual Studio Professional 2022 provides combined with the pricing makes it a good choice."
 

Cons

"Lucee CFML Server can be improved by staying up to date."
"One area I could suggest regarding improvements in deployment efficiency using Visual Studio Professional 2022 is that the context-aware code suggestion should be more tailored."
"Regarding Visual Studio Professional 2022's AI capabilities, I believe it needs some improvement in accuracy and reliability."
"Currently, Visual Studio Professional 2022 is not supporting the .TS, TypeScript code, which is a disadvantage, because with Playwright, we can do that in C#, but having Playwright code with TypeScript, I am not able to see any project or any suggestion about the .TS code."
"Apart from the editing feature, I would like to see improvement in Visual Studio Professional 2022 because performance has dropped significantly, making it currently about 100 times slower than Qt Creator, which is unreasonable to use in a multi-core environment such as the 128 cores that I use."
