logoWe are proud to announce ColdBox Platform release version 3.6.0 and ColdBox DevBox 2.3. This is an important minor release that addresses many important issues, but also introduces some great enhancements. There are no compatibility updates needed and here are our "What's New" guideline:

The major push to concurrency in our ColdBox 4.0 roadmap has been sponsored by the great people at Guardly, who leverages the ColdBox Platform for their enterprise suite of applications.  In this release we introduce asynchronous event driven programming via Interceptors.

MatchBox and WebAssembly: Running BoxLang in the Browser and at the Edge

MatchBox and WebAssembly: Running BoxLang in the Browser and at the Edge

The MatchBox open beta is live at https://boxlang.ortusbooks.com/boxlang-framework/matchbox, and it brings something genuinely new to the BoxLang ecosystem: a path into WebAssembly.

That means BoxLang code can now move into browser applications, static-site deployments, edge runtimes, and WASI-style containers - without requiring a JVM. The feature is still beta, but the core direction is already useful: write BoxLang, compile it with MatchBox, and ship the generated WASM artifact to wherever a small portable runtime makes sense.

BoxLang 1.14.0 : BoxSet is Here: BoxLang's New First-Class Set Type

BoxLang 1.14.0 : BoxSet is Here: BoxLang's New First-Class Set Type

BoxLang 1.14.0 ships something that JVM developers have wanted for a long time: a true first-class Set type baked directly into the language. Not a wrapper you reach for manually, not a createObject( "java", "java.util.HashSet" ) incantation you paste from a Stack Overflow answer years ago. A real BoxSet with literal syntax, operator overloads, a full functional pipeline, change listeners, JSON serialization, and deep Java interop.
