Today we are happy to release ColdBox DevBox. DevBox is a full open source development stack for ColdBox, ready to go for development in any environment (Windows, Linux, Mac). Just download, click start and get ready to code. This development server is full of goodies from ColdBox sample applications, MXUnit, ColdFusion Builder Extensions and so much more. So if you need a nice portable development environment for ColdBox, quick demo building, or just plain coding fun, download DevBox today. We also have our github repository for DevBox so you can watch, fork and start collaborating today.

We have many plans for DevBox in the future, so stay tuned as we continually progress your ColdFusion development with ColdBox!

BoxLang NeoVim Plugin Released

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.
