Just a quick post that the enhanced version of LightWire by Peter Bell that existed in the ColdBox core now has a new home: https://github.com/lmajano/LightWire

This version is an enhanced version that Peter created so you have it available as it will NOT be included with future versions of ColdBox.  So in preparation for 3.0.0 release, if you are using LightWire included with ColdBox you will have to install this version of lightwire in the root or mapping as "lightwire".  That's it, no core changes or app changes needed. Again, this will be for RC2 and 3.0.0 Final release.  Our decision to remove it from the core, is that we now have our own DI engine called WireBox that has spawned throughout the years.

BoxLang NeoVim Plugin Released

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.
