Welcome to our new blog.  We have finally migrated from our individual team author blog to a community official blog for the ColdBox Framework.  This blog will showcase news, release information, bug information, community driven questions, events, media, presentations, tips & tricks, tutorials, and well, the rest.  We will also be multi-authoring posts by all the members of the team, so we can get a wide range of authoring from the team.  So enjoy this blog as another repository of knowledge for the ColdBox Framework.

Just a note that our blog is powered by Mango and what a sweet blog it is.  I am extremely happy with it and all of its features and directions.  The only bad thing about it, is that it doesn't run on ColdBox :)

Shame you didn't eat your own dogfood and use the ColdBox version of BlogCFC. ;) I'm trying to learn MVC using ColdBox after several years away from CF. I use BlogCFC for my own blog, and it would be very helpful if you could do some posts that explain the thought processes you went through when migrating the site to ColdBox. -Rob

thanks rob. However the version of blogcfc is super old when I migrated it so mango was a great choice for us.We also added a simple blog app tosvn we will release for version 2.6.2 in a few weeks.

12 days of BoxLang - Day 3: SocketBox!

As BoxLang continues evolving into a modern, high-performance, JVM-based runtime, real-time communication becomes essential for the applications we all want to build: dashboards, collaboration tools, notifications, live feeds, multiplayer features, and more.

That’s where SocketBox steps in — the WebSocket upgrade listener built to work seamlessly with CommandBox and the BoxLang MiniServer. ⚡

Today, for Day 3, we’re highlighting how SocketBox supercharges BoxLang development by giving you fast, flexible, and framework-agnostic WebSocket capabilities.
