BoxLang 1.15.0 Released: Blazing Fast Strings, Runtime Portability, and much more

BoxLang 1.15.0 is a high-impact release with two big headlines and a long tail of hardening. The first headline is a massive performance upgrade to string handling: a new first-class BoxStringBuilder type, compile-time literal folding, smarter &= semantics, and a runtime concat strategy that automatically switches to builder-backed accumulation once your expression gets big enough. Your existing string-heavy code just got faster. No rewrites required.

MatchBox Web Server: BoxLang Without the Full Server Stack

MatchBox Web Server: BoxLang Without the Full Server Stack

MatchBox includes a native web runtime for building small, fast BoxLang web applications without requiring a JVM or a traditional servlet container. You can follow the MatchBox open beta at https://github.com/ortus-boxlang/matchbox. There are two related pieces in the beta today: a webroot server for .bxm templates and static assets, and a routed app server built around web.server(). Both are early, but they show the direction clearly: BoxLang should be able to serve HTTP from a compact native runtime when the application does not need the full JVM stack.
