Welcome to yet another release of the ColdBox Platform Utilities. This release has updated templates for applications, wirebox integration, wirebox variable mappings and our cool new ColdSpring to WireBox XML converter. I think the video will showcase these new features and how to use them.

DocBox v5 - Reborn: Modern API Docs for BoxLang & CFML

DocBox v5 - Reborn: Modern API Docs for BoxLang & CFML

Welcome to DocBox v5! We didn't just update DocBox. We rebuilt it from the ground up.

DocBox v5.0.0 represents a complete architectural rewrite—modern syntax, blazing performance, and a stunning new look that finally brings API documentation into 2025. Gone are the clunky HTML pages of yesteryear. Say hello to a gorgeous, theme-driven single-page application that makes browsing your API docs feel like using a premium developer tool. We have also released a dedicated module for BoxLang: BX-DOCBOX. A fully interactive CLI tool for generating your docs from the command line using pure BoxLang.
