We would like to feature a case study by GCA.net and how they implemented the ColdBox Platform in their corporate environment.  Their study really reflects the way they implemented ColdBox and how it helped their corporate initiative.  So click on the following link to read this amazing case study: http://wiki.coldbox.org/wiki/CaseStudies:GCA.NET.cfm
There are several features that appealed to us. The feature that most stands out is the extensive documentation. By adopting the ColdBox Framework we reduced our documentation demands. Documentation was only required for development of our model layer and augmentation to the Framework such as custom interceptors. The reduced documentation demand accelerated our development. Other features that appealed to us are: Caching; Shared Scope Management through Plug-ins; The Auto-Wire Interceptor; The Bean Factory Plug-IN; SES Interceptor and the ColdFusion Configuration compared to XML configuration.

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.

That’s where SocketBox steps in — the WebSocket upgrade listener built to work seamlessly with CommandBox and the BoxLang MiniServer. ⚡
