We're excited to announce the release of the BoxLang NeoVim Plugin - a comprehensive syntax highlighting solution designed specifically for BoxLang developers working in Vim and NeoVim environments. This isn't a port or adaptation of existing CFML syntax files; it's a ground-up implementation built for BoxLang's modern feature set. Coming soon as well will be our runners, syntax validators, and integration with our LSP for live previews, insights, and much more.

TL;DR: We just released a production-ready starter template that deploys a modern BoxLang application to DigitalOcean App Platform in under 5 minutes—starting at just $5/month. One-click deployment, auto-scaling, automatic redeployments, and zero downtime included.
