There are so many really good frameworks out now that I would use
almost anything before fighting with yet another version of Fusebox.
I'm moving everything to FW/1 as it is clean, simple and easy to use.

You're likely to get as many opinions as there are people on this list.

I haven't used Fusebox in a while (for no particular reason).

ColdBox is a good modern MVC framework that comes with a lot of
out-of-the-box tools if you want to try something new.
http://www.coldboxframework.com/

If you want something uber-light weight and simple, try Sean's FW/1.
http://fw1.riaforge.org/

If you want to play Framework Roulette, go to Charlie's framework list,
close your eyes, and point your finger at the screen.  :)

I've been coding CF for around 12 years now. I've been using fusebox 3
since it came out and love it. I can do a site pretty quick with it and
I'm
very comfortable there. So comfortable that I haven't looked any
further.
 Not a good thing for growth.

As I've grown as a developer, my applications have become more comlex,
and
the way some things are done in fusebox 3 feel a bit kludgy to me now.

So, It's time to try something new.

I tried fusebox 4 for a few days when it came out, couldn't get the
basic
app to work, and gave up. I'm willing to give it another go, and noticed
they are up to 5.5.1 now. I'm considering investing the time to give it
another try.

The documentation link under Learning Fusebox for 5.5 is broken. Only
tutorials are for fusebox 4 and earlier. The book is $40, a bit much I
think.

So, before I spend $40 and, even more valuable to me, time, any
recommendations? Is fusebox 5.5.1 worth it or should I go to something
else?
