12 Days of BoxLang - Day 4: TestBox

Today we’re celebrating one of the most exciting new additions to the BoxLang ecosystem:

the TestBox BoxLang CLI Runner — a fast, native way to run your TestBox tests directly through the BoxLang Runtime. ⚡

No server required. No CommandBox needed. Just pure, ultra-fast BoxLang-powered testing from the command lineon Windows, Mac, and Linux.

If you’re building modern applications with BoxLang — web apps, CLIs, serverless functions, Android apps, or OS-level utilities — this new feature gives you a unified, flexible testing workflow you can run anywhere.

12 days of BoxLang - Day 3: SocketBox!

As BoxLang continues evolving into a modern, high-performance, JVM-based runtime, real-time communication becomes essential for the applications we all want to build: dashboards, collaboration tools, notifications, live feeds, multiplayer features, and more.

Today, for Day 3, we’re highlighting how SocketBox supercharges BoxLang development by giving you fast, flexible, and framework-agnostic WebSocket capabilities.
