At Ortus Solutions, we’ve always been at the forefront of innovation in the ColdFusion ecosystem. From pioneering modern ColdFusion practices to developing cutting-edge tools and frameworks, we’ve been passionate to help and sup[port the community into shaping the future of web development.That’s why we decided to build BoxLang, our new JVM programming language that not only builds on the strengths of ColdFusion but takes modern software development to the next level.

We’re thrilled to announce that Ortus Solutions, through BoxLang, will be participating as a Silver Sponsor at the prestigious Jfokus 2025 conference! Taking place in Stockholm, Sweden, from February 3 to 5, Jfokus is one of the premier developer conferences in Europe, bringing together thousands of tech enthusiasts, thought leaders, and industry professionals.

As we approach a stable release of BoxLang and our continued marketing reaches more folks, many have asked about its purpose. Why create a new language when the JVM ecosystem already includes established languages like Kotlin, Groovy, and Scala, to name a few.
