For anyone looking for other tools for REST development, the Chrome extension <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/restlet-client-rest-api-t/aejoelaoggembcahagimdiliamlcdmfm" rel="nofollow">Restlet Client</a> works quite well.  However I have not used their service nor paid features.

<p>Good point, Tyler. And I could have mentioned postman and others. I just thought that could start getting a bit far afield of CF-specific tools. <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/2.3/72x72/1f642.png" alt="??" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p><p>And yes, I do mention jsfiddle and phpfiddle in the section before, but that was more in the guise of existing similar web-based fiddle for other languages, and where some seeing them may have lamented that there was none for CF.</p><p>Writing is always a balancing act, choosing what and what not to say–especially for one like me who is accused by many of being already excessively wordy! <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/2.3/72x72/1f642.png" alt="??" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>

I should have mentioned in this 4th part another aspect of working with CFML in new ways (adding to the REPL, CFFiddle, and REST playground): if you didn’t know, Adobe has released Docker images since CF2016, and they have been updated for CF2018 (and with each of its updates).
