Constructing reactive, modern CFML applications is a breeze with our module CBWIRE. To make sure users can take advantage of the features we've added to CBWIRE, I have created an examples repository that includes Getting Started, Forms, Template Directives, Advanced, and Alpine sections.

Each of these sections provides an example that is broken down into Result, View/Layout, Component, and Template sections.

The Result section gives users the opportunity to interact with the example, while the View/Layout section demonstrates how the component can be integrated into ColdBox views or layouts. The Component portion enables users to view the internal workings of the component, including data properties, computed properties, and actions. Finally, the Template section showcases the HTML that makes up the component's UI.

Pro tip

To get a better understanding of CBWIRE and its AJAX requests, users can use their browser's developer tools to inspect the Network tab. Here you can see the incoming and outgoing payloads that CBWIRE generates behind the scenes.

Summary

I hope that this examples repository helps users get the most out of CBWIRE and its features. If you have any recommendations for how we can improve the examples or CBWIRE itself, please direct them to me at https://twitter.com/grantcopley.

Introducing BoxLang AI: Build Intelligent Applications with One Unified AI Platform

Artificial intelligence is opening new possibilities for web applications, but building those experiences can become complicated quickly. Each AI provider brings its own SDK, authentication process, APIs, and model-specific requirements. Add agents, memory, tools, structured responses, or document retrieval, and development teams can find themselves managing integrations instead of improving their applications.

Introduced at Into the Box 2026, BoxLang AI gives developers a more unified way to build AI-powered applications within the BoxLang ecosystem.

bx-toml : Native TOML Support for BoxLang

bx-toml : Native TOML Support for BoxLang

TOML has quietly become the configuration format of the modern toolchain. Rust ships Cargo.toml, Python ships pyproject.toml, and a growing pile of CLIs, deployment platforms, and infrastructure tools expect it. If your BoxLang application needs to read one of those files, or generate one, you now have first class support for it.

BoxLang 1.16.0 Released!

BoxLang 1.16.0 Released!

BoxLang 1.16.0 is here, closing 50 issues across new features, improvements, and bug fixes. The theme running through this release is control: control over how HTTP clients are created and reused, control over what happens when a request fails, control over how much data a response is allowed to buffer, control over when Java classpaths reload, and tighter alignment with CFML behavior in the edge cases that only show up in production.
