Making the most out of our time at home may mean finally doing many things you wished you’ve done. To combat boredom, we have compiled a list of fun things to do while staying in. 

 

  1. Read that book you left in your desk and never had the time to finish.
  2. Enroll in online classes or register for a webinar. Many universities are offering online classes for free. Don’t forget we also have a free webinar on CBElastic Search this Friday!
  3. Catch up on your favorite TV series or if you prefer, watch educational videos. BIG news, our Into the Box 2018 and 2019 session videos are just $9.99 right now!
  4. Exercise! A great way to liberate stress is by exercising. Doing it distracts you and it’s a great way to have fun.
  5. Play board games or build a puzzle. There’s nothing better than playing board games with your family!
  6. Clone your favorite Box Product (ColdBox, CommandBox, TestBox, ContentBox) and help us close down some tickets. While you’re at it, close a bug or add a new feature!

While this is a small list, there are many things you can do in your free time, so enjoy doing what you like!

Building Native CLI Apps with MatchBox & Native Fusion

Building Native CLI Apps with MatchBox & Native Fusion

MatchBox makes BoxLang practical for a classic deployment target: the single-file command-line application.

The MatchBox open beta is available at https://github.com/ortus-boxlang/matchbox.

With the MatchBox native target, you can compile a .bxs script into a standalone executable for macOS, Linux, or Windows. The generated binary includes the MatchBox VM core and your compiled BoxLang bytecode. It does not require a JVM, a separate MatchBox install, or any runtime on the target machine.
