Relax version 2.2.0, for Coldbox, is now available and includes a number of bug fixes and improvements. Relax, aptly subtitled "RESTful tools for lazy experts", is a Coldbox module, which makes it easy for developers to conduct modeling, documentation and testing for their RESTful APIs. The easiest way to get started with Relax is by installing it via CommandBox from the root of your ColdBox application:

box install relax

Once Relax is installed, an example API is available to help you get started. Additional documentation is also available. To upgrade your existing installation of Relax, simply run:

box update relax

Happy coding!
