"Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. ." Romans 5:5

  2. ContentBox Site: Create a new ColdBox configured site with the ContentBox Module installed. This does not contain our installer or DSN creator modules (Great for containers or pre-installed sites) : box install contentbox-site
  3. ContentBox Module: Install ContentBox as a module into an existing ColdBox application (Requires ORM configuration, manual installation): box install contentbox
  4. ContentBox Installer Module : You can also install ONLY the ContentBox installer module as an addon: box install contentbox-installer-module.
