Are you ready to enter the exciting world of app building? In today's world, 60% of people are viewing your website on a mobile phone most sites are hard to navigate.  People constantly have to scrolling around and zoom in and out to get all the information. The first option is to make a responsive site which will help but in squishing all your content down into a smaller screen, you lose a lot of the design aspects you spent all your time working on. 

What about a mobile app? Well that's just way too expensive to create, and plus you have to know Objective-C (or Swift) and Java.... Well thanks to some help from our friends at Ionic Framework now you too can create a mobile app without having to learn new languages. Now you can fully customize your user's experience on your site, plus use all of the functionality that is available to the phone. You can easily integrate popular plugins such as the Camera, Geolocation, Contacts, Bluetooth, TouchID, Accelerometer, and much more...

In my Webinar on March 30th I will give a quick overview of Ionic Framework and the Ionic Ecosystem, create a ContentBox REST API, and build an Ionic App that will pull live data from the ContentBox API to display pages and blog posts.

BoxLang 1.17 Series Part 4 : WriteDump Enhanced!

You call writeDump() on an ORM entity or a very rich class graph . The browser locks up. Thirty seconds later you get a page with forty thousand rows on it, you scroll for a while, you give up, and you go edit your code to dump a sub-key instead. Or worse, you crash the server.

BoxLang 1.17 Series Part 3 : Encrypted Config Secrets

Everyone knows the datasource password should not be sitting in plain text in a config file. Everyone has also, at some point, shipped exactly that, because the alternative was a pile of environment variable plumbing that nobody wanted to build on a deadline. x

BoxLang AI 3.4 Blog Series Part 3 : Batched Approvals

BoxLang AI 3.4 Blog Series Part 3 : Batched Approvals

Here's a bug that's easy to miss until it bites someone in production: an agent turn asks for two tool calls at once, both need human approval, and only the first one actually suspends. The second one gets silently skipped. Not rejected, not queued, just gone. That's what happened before 3.4.0, and it's fixed now with batched tool-call approvals.
