We’ve been working on a fun new library to make WebSockets easier for CFML (and BoxLang) developers. WebSockets are incredibly powerful for real-time applications, but CF developers have historically lagged behind other languages in adopting this technology.

The latest release of BoxLang, Beta 23, marks a significant step forward in our journey to create the ultimate dynamic language for the JVM. Packed with powerful new features, important bug fixes, and thoughtful optimizations, this update is designed to make your development experience smoother, faster, and more reliable, especially after now starting to take 100s of comments and bug reports from our community.
