I am finalizing the latest beta for 2.0 and it will be available this week. One new feature that will be available is the addition of pre/post event handlers for a requested event. What does this mean? Well, once an event is requested to the framework, let's say its "ehTools.dspTree". Then the framework will execute the dspTree method in the ehTools event handler. Now, you can declare two new methods in the ehTools event handler: 1) preHandler 2)postHandler Inside of those two new methods you will place any logic that will be executed before/after any requested event in that event handler cfc. This is a great way to implicitly run events before and after a requested event. You can even filter the type of logic you would like to execute inside of these methods by looking into the context object and seeing the event that was executed. This is a great addition to the framework and I expect your comments on this addition. You can find the ticket Read it and let me know your thoughts

Introducing BoxLang AI: Build Intelligent Applications with One Unified AI Platform
Artificial intelligence is opening new possibilities for web applications, but building those experiences can become complicated quickly. Each AI provider brings its own SDK, authentication process, APIs, and model-specific requirements. Add agents, memory, tools, structured responses, or document retrieval, and development teams can find themselves managing integrations instead of improving their applications.
Introduced at Into the Box 2026, BoxLang AI gives developers a more unified way to build AI-powered applications within the BoxLang ecosystem.
bx-toml : Native TOML Support for BoxLang
TOML has quietly become the configuration format of the modern toolchain. Rust ships Cargo.toml, Python ships pyproject.toml, and a growing pile of CLIs, deployment platforms, and infrastructure tools expect it. If your BoxLang application needs to read one of those files, or generate one, you now have first class support for it.
