Introducing bx-jwt: Enterprise-Grade JSON Web Tokens for BoxLang 🔐
JWT authentication is everywhere. But rolling it correctly — with proper algorithm enforcement, key management, clock skew handling, JWE encryption, and zero security footguns — is anything but trivial. Today, we're shipping bx-jwt, a production-ready JWT/JWE module for BoxLang that handles all of it out of the box, so you can focus on building, not fighting cryptography.

What “Modernize or Die” Really Means in 2026
“Modernize or Die” is not about forcing teams into MVC, chasing trends, or rewriting every CFML application from scratch. It means making sure your applications, teams, and processes can survive the future: easier to maintain, test, secure, deploy, document, hire for, and evolve.

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?

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?
