🔎 Introducing bx-meilisearch: Blazing-Fast Search for BoxLang Applications

Search is one of those features that can make or break an application. Users expect it to be instant, forgiving of typos, and smart about relevance. Building that experience from scratch is a significant investment. That is exactly why we built bx-meilisearch — a BoxLang-native module that puts the full power of Meilisearch at your fingertips with a fluent, chainable DSL that feels right at home in any BoxLang application.
