Ever tried to wrangle Quartz or cron on the JVM and thought, “Why is this so hard to read… and harder to change?”

You’re not alone. Most scheduling tools make you choose between flexibility, readability, and maintainability.

With BoxLang: Why not all three?

In this session, you’ll see how BoxLang lets you write and manage scheduled tasks directly in code using a functional, fluent, human-readable syntax. No more brittle XML configs, no more hunting for the magic cron string you wrote six months ago.

We’ll cover:

Writing schedules in code that you can read without squinting
Running tasks in your JVM apps and modules with zero boilerplate
Switching from one-time jobs to complex recurring workflows in seconds
Integrating with friendly management tools to monitor and tweak schedules live
Boosting efficiency without sacrificing clarity
Whether you’ve been deep in the JVM trenches for years or just started exploring BoxLang, you’ll leave with battle-ready scheduling patterns that make your tasks finally source-controlled and even, I dare say, fun to code!
