How about a discount on it for those of use that already ordered (and received) the hard copy? BTW, my book arrived very quickly. I ordered it the morning after it was announced.

The ebook is 39.99, but I still don't know how to offer discounts under the ebook system. Once I do, if they offer discounts, I could honor them. However, I have no control over it now.

This is really good news, I would still like a hard copy so may wait until I can get it from the UK Amazon store, but thanks for this option. :)

Hi Luis, Thank you for the book. I have a few questions: 1. If I purchase the eBook now and a discount code is available later can I claim it? 2. When version 3 is available as an eBook, will people who bought this one get a discount? 3. If I buy this book can I use the version 3 of the framework or it will jut confuse me? Thanks

Mike once I get the ability to offer discount codes I will blog about it and you must send me the original invoice and I will honor the discount. As for discounts for version 3 the same will apply. However as of now I am still waiting to see if it is possible on the ebook versions. Version 3 is a progression of the platform and still in active development. The core concepts remain the same. The differences can be seen in the compatibility guide. However I say that 85-90% of 2.6 applies to version 3.

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.
