BoxLang Configuration
Overview
BoxLang's runtime is configured through boxlang.json. The file is auto-created in
the BoxLang home directory on first startup. All settings can be overridden via
environment variables or Java system properties without modifying the file.
When configuration questions involve app-specific behavior in Application.bx
(this.name, lifecycle callbacks, per-app schedulers/watchers, nested app
isolation), pair this with the
application-descriptor skill.
