We are excited to announce a major new addition to BoxLang Academy: the 7-part video series, Building AI on the JVM: A BoxLang AI Series

Artificial Intelligence is no longer a distant frontier, it’s a core requirement for modern enterprise software. But for JVM developers, the path to integration has often been fragmented. That ends today. With the launch of this series, we are showing you exactly how to leverage the BoxLang AI (BXAI) platform to build intelligent, scalable applications with ease.


đź§  Master Enterprise AI Orchestration

Hosted by Luis Majano, this series is a practical deep dive into the BXAI framework. You won't just learn about LLMs; you’ll learn how to orchestrate them into professional workflows.

What's inside the series?

  • Unified Development: See how BoxLang centralizes over 14+ AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Ollama, etc.) under a single API.
  • Advanced Architectures: Master RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) and tool calling to make your AI data-aware.
  • Type Safety: Learn to use Structured Outputs to ensure your AI responses actually work with your code.
  • Multimodality: Explore how to process images and PDFs directly within your AI pipelines.

🛠️ The Platform: Why BoxLang AI?

While the Academy teaches you the how, the BoxLang platform provides the tools. By adding BXAI to your stack, you gain:

  1. Zero Vendor Lock-in: Switch between LLM providers with a simple configuration change.
  2. Seamless JVM Integration: Works natively with your existing Java and ColdFusion/CFML investments.
  3. Agent Orchestration: Build autonomous agents that can think, remember, and act within your business logic.

📺 Start Watching Now

The entire series is free and available now on the Academy. Whether you have an hour to binge the whole thing or want to take it one episode at a time, your journey to becoming an AI-enabled JVM developer starts here.👉 Join the Series at BoxLang Academy💡 Ready to Build?

BoxLang 1.17 Series Part 3 : Encrypted Config Secrets

Everyone knows the datasource password should not be sitting in plain text in a config file. Everyone has also, at some point, shipped exactly that, because the alternative was a pile of environment variable plumbing that nobody wanted to build on a deadline. x

BoxLang AI 3.4 Blog Series Part 3 : Batched Approvals

BoxLang AI 3.4 Blog Series Part 3 : Batched Approvals

Here's a bug that's easy to miss until it bites someone in production: an agent turn asks for two tool calls at once, both need human approval, and only the first one actually suspends. The second one gets silently skipped. Not rejected, not queued, just gone. That's what happened before 3.4.0, and it's fixed now with batched tool-call approvals.

Getting Started with BoxLang as an Alternative CFML Engine

Getting Started with BoxLang as an Alternative CFML Engine

If you have an existing ColdFusion or Lucee application, one of the first questions you may have about BoxLang is probably not:

“Should I rewrite my application in BoxLang?”

It is much simpler:

“Can BoxLang run the CFML application I already have?”

That was the focus of veteran CFML troubleshooter Charlie Arehart’s session at Into the Box 2026, Getting Started with BoxLang as an Alternative CFML Engine.
