I have some* experience using the flex framework for building web apps.

But I have no experience with server side languages, I have heard the saying "choose one and stick to it" several times in reference to programming.

I have chosen coldfusion.

Now I have no clue what to do or where to start.

Now to the details:

It will be a site for food showcases. Food menus sorted by cultural origin, vegetarian or meat kind, etc. Things like that.

I intend to build a web site that enables subscriptions, and keeps them updated whenever updates are made. And a commenting system to encourage user feedback. And I would like the site to have a database of food items (as mentioned earlier); from my research coldfusion will enable me to do this.

I would like resources that I could go to, and do more research myself. And all recommendations that can be provided.

Whether you think I dont need coldfusion, and if I can get this done with just flex and as3.

I appreciate all feedback, thanks for taking the time to read and respond. * = not much experience, still a "beginner"
