I just updated the forums to include the latest beta build of ColdBox 1.2.0 - Build 446. So please Click Here To Get It All the know issues for the previous build have been resolved and more extra features have been added. The documentation has been rolling along and I have updated a major part of the Trac wiki. I will be updating a special guide on caching. Since the ColdBox cache is now prime-time!! To find out all the fixes and updates on this version look at the Mileston Information at the Trac site. This will be the last beta before the 1.2.0 launch, so your comments and suggestions are more than welcomed.

MatchBox Brings BoxLang to ESP32 Microcontrollers 🦀
One of the most unusual parts of MatchBox is the ESP32 target.
The MatchBox open beta is available at https://github.com/ortus-boxlang/matchbox, and it can compile BoxLang scripts into bytecode and deploy them to ESP32 microcontrollers.
