We are excited to announce the general availability of ColdBox 4.1.0. This is a minor release with some needed patches and some cool new REST template features. You can update your library via CommandBox by just typing: box update or installing it via box install coldbox

New RESTFul Template

One of the cool things of this release is the new REST template that will allow you to build RESTFul services out of the box. You can also leverage CommandBox to generate RESTFul templates as well

    box coldbox create app name=restapp skeleton=rest --installColdBox
