This repo contains the Docker images for the BoxLang OS and MiniServer runtimes. You can find the full documentation here: https://boxlang.ortusbooks.com/getting-started/running-boxlang/docker
BoxLang is a modern dynamic JVM language that can be deployed on multiple runtimes: operating system (Windows/Mac/*nix/Embedded), web server, lambda, iOS, android, web assembly, and more. BoxLang combines many features from different programming languages, including Java, ColdFusion, Python, Ruby, Go, and PHP, to provide developers with a modern and expressive syntax.
BoxLang has been designed to be a highly adaptable and dynamic language to take advantage of all the modern features of the JVM and was designed with several goals in mind:
- Be a rapid application development (RAD) scripting language and middleware.
- Unstagnate the dynamic language ecosystem in Java.
- Be dynamic, modular, lightweight, and fast.
- Be 100% interoperable with Java.
- Be modern, functional, and fluent (Think mixing CFML, Node, Kotlin, Java, and Clojure)
- Be able to support multiple runtimes and deployment targets:
- Native OS Binaries (CLI Tooling, compilers, etc.)
- MiniServer
- Servlet Containers - CommandBox/Tomcat/Jetty/JBoss
- JSR223 Scripting Engines
- AWS Lambda
- Microsoft Azure Functions (Coming Soon)
- Android/iOS Devices (Coming Soon)
- Web assembly (Coming Soon)
- Compile down to Java ByteCode
- Allow backward compatibility with the existing ColdFusion/CFML language.
- Great IDE, Debugger and Tooling: https://boxlang.ortusbooks.com/getting-started/ide-tooling
- Scripting (Any OS and Shebang) and REPL capabilities
