We are proud to announce that all of the ColdBox sample applications have been updated for the upcoming ColdBox 3.0 release. Sample applications are important as they increase the speed of entry into any development related task.

Give me a good sample and I can adopt it to my needs and be well on my way to learning the concept.

We believe so much in them, that there are over 20 of them covering a number of different techniques and tasks for ColdBox.

You can download the latest versions of our sample applications for ColdBox from http://github.com/ColdBox/coldbox-samples

Here is a quick run down of the sample applications.

A very simple CRUD and Listing application using Mark Mandel's Transfer Library. This is a great example to learn how to tuse the Transfer Library and the ColdBox Framework.

This is a port of the actual application. It is by far specifically designed for ColdBox. It might contain unusual or redundant code.

Mike,

Not sure who was planning on doing that. If I get some time I will look at creating it. Looks like a nice way to compare some of the frameworks.

Hi Mike,

We never did a litepost one as we have our series of simpleblog. So I don't have it as a priority unless somebody contributes it.

Introducing BoxLang AI: Build Intelligent Applications with One Unified AI Platform

Introducing BoxLang AI: Build Intelligent Applications with One Unified AI Platform

Artificial intelligence is opening new possibilities for web applications, but building those experiences can become complicated quickly. Each AI provider brings its own SDK, authentication process, APIs, and model-specific requirements. Add agents, memory, tools, structured responses, or document retrieval, and development teams can find themselves managing integrations instead of improving their applications.

Introduced at Into the Box 2026, BoxLang AI gives developers a more unified way to build AI-powered applications within the BoxLang ecosystem.

bx-toml : Native TOML Support for BoxLang

bx-toml : Native TOML Support for BoxLang

TOML has quietly become the configuration format of the modern toolchain. Rust ships Cargo.toml, Python ships pyproject.toml, and a growing pile of CLIs, deployment platforms, and infrastructure tools expect it. If your BoxLang application needs to read one of those files, or generate one, you now have first class support for it.

BoxLang 1.16.0 Released!

BoxLang 1.16.0 Released!

BoxLang 1.16.0 is here, closing 50 issues across new features, improvements, and bug fixes. The theme running through this release is control: control over how HTTP clients are created and reused, control over what happens when a request fails, control over how much data a response is allowed to buffer, control over when Java classpaths reload, and tighter alignment with CFML behavior in the edge cases that only show up in production.
