For a bit of context, Lucee is the evolution of Railo, which itself was an open source rewrite of Coldfusion after Adobe basically stagnated development. People have a lot of hate because, Coldfusion, but actually, they got it to a really good place. It has a lot of stuff baked in, so you can configure everything like dB connections, mail settings etc outside of your app and they’re available without any messing around in your code. CFML is actually a pretty clean templating language and everyone had switched to “cfscript” for the actual code. Also, it was relatively fast, and you could plug in any java classes you wanted (and even load them dynamically). My point is, don’t be too quick to judge. This is actually a good bit of work that came along after it’s lineage had fallen out of fashion.
