In this release, we're thrilled to unveil a series of significant enhancements and upgrades to ContentBox designed to elevate your experience and considerably improve system performance. Our team has focused on integrating the latest CommandBox migrations and ColdBox Core, which ensures that the core system continues to operate with maximum efficiency and stability. This upgrade is part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining a cutting-edge platform that meets the evolving needs of our users.
