I just finalized two very important guides that I know you will enjoy.

ColdBox ColdSpring Integration Guide

A complete guide of interacting with coldspring from coldbox, how to use it, sample code and features.

Logger Plugin: How to trace messages to the debug Panel

An informative guide of how to trace custom and dynamic messages to the coldbox debugging panel. Enjoy this two new great guides. More will be posted soon. The 2.0.0 release is reaching its maturity and most likely will be launching by next weekend. I have had a tremendous response with this release and the framework has matured considerable since its 1.1.0 release. The framework is solid, powerful, extensible and faster than ever. The introduction of the coldbox dashboard as a companion application is amazing and it lets you configure your framework installation with ease, learn about your framework, learn about updates and actually report bugs. Future plans for this dashboard include application generators, external tool additions, extensibility, log viewer, etc. So stay tuned as these great tools are in development. As always, I ask for your contribution to this great project. If you want to contribute with code, ideas, bugs, enhancements, please do so by the following manners: * info@coldboxframework.com
* ColdBox Forums
* ColdBox IRC channel on DALNet: #coldbox Thanks again for your support and stay tuned for more updates to come as development continues. A great place to do live chat's with me and other of the collaborators is on the IRC channel. So please stop by and chat with us as this framework grows.

MatchBox and WebAssembly: Running BoxLang in the Browser and at the Edge

MatchBox and WebAssembly: Running BoxLang in the Browser and at the Edge

The MatchBox open beta is live at https://boxlang.ortusbooks.com/boxlang-framework/matchbox, and it brings something genuinely new to the BoxLang ecosystem: a path into WebAssembly.

That means BoxLang code can now move into browser applications, static-site deployments, edge runtimes, and WASI-style containers - without requiring a JVM. The feature is still beta, but the core direction is already useful: write BoxLang, compile it with MatchBox, and ship the generated WASM artifact to wherever a small portable runtime makes sense.

BoxLang 1.14.0 : BoxSet is Here: BoxLang's New First-Class Set Type

BoxLang 1.14.0 : BoxSet is Here: BoxLang's New First-Class Set Type

BoxLang 1.14.0 ships something that JVM developers have wanted for a long time: a true first-class Set type baked directly into the language. Not a wrapper you reach for manually, not a createObject( "java", "java.util.HashSet" ) incantation you paste from a Stack Overflow answer years ago. A real BoxSet with literal syntax, operator overloads, a full functional pipeline, change listeners, JSON serialization, and deep Java interop.
