🚀 ColdBox CLI 8.11: The Era of AI Skills Comes to Every ColdBox & BoxLang App
ColdBox CLI 8.11 is here, and it's one of the most significant releases we've shipped for AI-assisted development. This release wires the CLI directly into our brand new public skills directory at skills.boxlang.io, brings our AI tooling in line with industry-wide agent conventions, and introduces a wave of quality-of-life improvements that make AI integration feel less like setup and more like infrastructure.

Regretably Michael's site is down for rework... but the message says relaunch Real Soon Now. I worked through the first five installments and I believe it's worth going back there till it is back on line. Good step-by-step, good foundation, MORE, MICHAEL, MORE! Can't wait for installment six, and for the rest of the community, for the site to be back on the air. HEY LOUIS, could you talk to Michael about hosting the tut's as like a mirror? You could stay one tut behind him so folks would still go to his site for the latest, but could get a taste from your site if/when his is down?

That is a very good idea orc,
I will definitely mention it to Michael, to see if he agrees. Well, I guess he would read this? Michael?

Luis,
Do you know of any other tutorials? The link above doesn't work anymore.

Luis,
I was wondering if your book has step-by-step on how to build a fully functional Coldbox application?
