Cfbuilder is built on eclipse, so you can also use most eclipse plugins as
well.
I do still like Dreamweaver though, it has its good points.

Subject: Choosing between ColdFusion Builder and IntelliJ


I'm considering moving on from Dreamweaver and finally using a better IDE
for CF work. I know of CFBuilder and have downloaded the trial to eval. I
used IntelliJ for some Java projects 2 years ago and it was outstanding.

My current take is that price is equal and functionality is *roughly* equal
with each having its own strengths. The one big issue for me is that
CFBuilder already has a (small but growing) community of extensions. I like
the idea of Apptacular, varscoper, etc. all built-in. My concern over
IntelliJ (or more accurately, the CFML plug-in for it) is the lack of a
large enough user base to support the demand for these CF-specific
extensions.

I'm curious to hear thoughts and get feedback re the choice.
