ColdBox Platform Ref CardWe are pleased to announce our release of the ColdBox LITE Ref Card.  It is available in PDF form so you can view it in the browser, or download it to any mobile/reader device for later reference.  Of course, it's only a few pages long so you can print it out and keep it at your desk.

Download Here!

We have several more Ref Cards planned over the next few months.  They aim to be 4-6 page introductions to the family of ColdBox libraries that give you a high-level overview of what that library does and how to get started using it.  We won't cover every feature-- just the basics to get you started.  The ColdBox LITE Ref Card covers what an MVC framework is, how to download and install ColdBox LITE and gets you started creating your first app.

The ref cards are available freely to download and are hosted on our official GitHub repo and we encourage you to share them with any coworkers or friends who you think might benefit from an intro to ColdBox LITE.  If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to E-mail us.  Also, a special shout-out to Richard McKenna for designing the layout for us.

Keep your eyes open for these additional Ref Cards coming soon:

  • WireBox Ref Card
  • WireBox AOP Ref Card
  • CacheBox Ref Card
  • LogBox Ref Card
  • MockBox Ref Card
  • ColdBox ORM Ref Card
  • ContentBox Ref Card

JWT authentication is everywhere. But rolling it correctly — with proper algorithm enforcement, key management, clock skew handling, JWE encryption, and zero security footguns — is anything but trivial. Today, we're shipping bx-jwt, a production-ready JWT/JWE module for BoxLang that handles all of it out of the box, so you can focus on building, not fighting cryptography.

What “Modernize or Die” Really Means in 2026

What “Modernize or Die” Really Means in 2026

“Modernize or Die” is not about forcing teams into MVC, chasing trends, or rewriting every CFML application from scratch. It means making sure your applications, teams, and processes can survive the future: easier to maintain, test, secure, deploy, document, hire for, and evolve. In 2026, modernization is less about adopting the newest pattern and more about reducing business risk, protecting the value already built into your systems, and ensuring CFML applications remain credible, sustai...
