FusionReactor Introduces Box Lang support in version 12.1
FusionReactor’s release of version 12.1 introduces support for BoxLang, a powerful scripting language increasingly popular in the ColdFusion and Lucee ecosystems.
BoxLang, developed by Ortus Solutions, is at the heart of modern CFML (ColdFusion Markup Language) development, powering frameworks like ColdBox, CommandBox, and TestBox. By adding support for BoxLang, FusionReactor not only caters to the needs of CFML developers but also strengthens its position as a versatile monitoring tool for modern web applications.
Why BoxLang matters
BoxLang is not just another scripting language; it’s an integral part of the tools that are redefining CFML development. With its ability to write modular, testable, and maintainable code, BoxLang enables developers to build scalable applications with greater ease. Frameworks like ColdBox provide developers with structured MVC patterns, while CommandBox offers a powerful CLI, making BoxLang a key player in the ecosystem.
What this means for developers
With FusionReactor 12.1’s support for BoxLang, developers now have the ability to monitor and troubleshoot their BoxLang-based applications more effectively. Using ColdBox for example, you can build robust CFML applications and have FusionReactor continue to provide deep insights into application performance, error tracking, and runtime metrics.
12.1 support means that FusionReactor can now track BoxLang application metrics, giving you a granular view of how your code is executing. It also allows for better integration with the broader suite of FusionReactor’s monitoring capabilities, such as automated alerting, detailed transaction tracking, and powerful debugging tools.
FusionReactor's integration of BoxLang in version 12.1
FusionReactor’s integration of BoxLang in version 12.1 is a significant step forward for CFML developers. It underscores FusionReactor’s commitment to supporting modern development practices and enhancing the performance monitoring experience across various environments. For developers leveraging BoxLang in their projects, this update brings a new level of insight and control, enabling them to deliver faster, more reliable applications.
If you’re a FusionReactor user or a developer working with CFML, now is the perfect time to explore how this new support can elevate your development process.
