The Box guys from Ortus are going to be hanging out (and speaking) at Adobe's 2015 installment of ColdFusion Summit.  We're so stoked about hanging out in Vegas that we've decided to show up early and put on a deep dive Box training before CF Summit that focuses on the ColdBox MVC Platform and our new CommandBox CLI, Package Manager, REPL, and Embedded Server.  
 
We've reserved a sweet pad at the close-by Vdara hotel for two days of deep training in the way of the Box.  Luis and I will be leading the classes where you'll be able to get one-on-one help, ask questions, and do hands-on exercises.  This is a great chance for any team who's been pondering jumping into ColdBox or CommandBox but don't know where to start. Or come to learn more and make sure you're getting the best out of your code.  
 
Registration is discounted 20% for CF Summit attendees, so sign yourself up, sign your employees up, or just bring the whole team.  To keep class sizes small, we have limited space so reserve your seats today and we'll see you in Vegas!

MatchBox and WebAssembly: Running BoxLang in the Browser and at the Edge

MatchBox and WebAssembly: Running BoxLang in the Browser and at the Edge

The MatchBox open beta is live at https://boxlang.ortusbooks.com/boxlang-framework/matchbox, and it brings something genuinely new to the BoxLang ecosystem: a path into WebAssembly.

That means BoxLang code can now move into browser applications, static-site deployments, edge runtimes, and WASI-style containers - without requiring a JVM. The feature is still beta, but the core direction is already useful: write BoxLang, compile it with MatchBox, and ship the generated WASM artifact to wherever a small portable runtime makes sense.

BoxLang 1.14.0 : BoxSet is Here: BoxLang's New First-Class Set Type

BoxLang 1.14.0 : BoxSet is Here: BoxLang's New First-Class Set Type

BoxLang 1.14.0 ships something that JVM developers have wanted for a long time: a true first-class Set type baked directly into the language. Not a wrapper you reach for manually, not a createObject( "java", "java.util.HashSet" ) incantation you paste from a Stack Overflow answer years ago. A real BoxSet with literal syntax, operator overloads, a full functional pipeline, change listeners, JSON serialization, and deep Java interop.
