Ever want to try something quick in CFML? Show something off and get the feedback instantly?
One of the things CommandBox can do for you is provide a REPL (Read-Evaluate-Print-Loop) console for immediate ColdFusion (CFML) interaction so you can do just that.
After CommandBox is installed, just run
box repl
This will open a interactive console that will run CFML.
Here is a screen shot of some commands and their output using the CommandBox REPL
As you can see, you can run any CFML function and it will return its output, do math, or whatever you need a REPL for.
