From CFML to BoxLang: Lessons from the Masa CMS v8 Evolution

Masa CMS v8 isn’t just an update; it’s a case study in modernizing CFML applications. This session explores the journey of introducing BoxLang support into a mature, complex codebase.

We will explore the specific technical hurdles encountered during the v8 development cycle—the "unfiltered" version of what works, what didn't, and how we optimized the platform for the BoxLang runtime. You don’t need to be a Masa expert to attend; this session is designed for any developer looking for a real-world example of migrating a professional application to the BoxLang ecosystem.

What you’ll learn:

• How to bridge the gap between traditional CFML and BoxLang.
• The "Hurdles & Heroes": Real-life fixes for migration challenges.
• How to spin up your first Masa v8 instance on BoxLang.
