We find beauty in the ordinary, and that was what some of our team members in El Salvador were tasked with, finding the beauty in everyday life. Our photography contest featured breathtaking images that took our breath away to say the least. 

The team ventured out and captured images in an internal contest. Given their amazing response, we decided to share the winners with you all:

CommandBox 5.2.0 added a new feature called Server Profiles which allow you to dial in a bevy of development or production lockdown rules in a single setting.  Each profile can be tweaked with individual settings to customize them.

ForgeBox

We are so excited to bring you a minor but huuuge release for FORGEBOX and all of its editions. Here are the major updates for this release and the full release notes.

Major Updates

ColdBox 6

We have made the upgrade and forgebox.io is now fully powered by ColdBox 6.1.0. This was a major upgrade to our entire framework engine and we are reaping the so many benefits of the ColdBox release. From async operations, to major rendering improvements. The entire logging enhancements on its own have rendered a 2x performance boost for API calls. We have also analyzed our traffic data and our page rendering has increased by 27% due to the ColdBox 6 Rendering capabilities. These are significant boosts in performance and stability just by the underlying framework on itself. Great job ColdBox Team!
