• Setting up Continuous Integration

  One, I don't understand Java environments really well. All I have done so far is create some GUI applications using JavaFX. Wish I could share my code, but unfortunately, its part of my assignments and can't be open-sourced. Second, the instructions I found in the Contributing docs were bare-minimum, and kinda hard to follow for a beginner. An experienced Java developer would get them really quickly, no doubt... - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago

• How to use the JavaFX library Medusa to display weather data

  JavaFX (an open source, next generation client application platform for desktop, mobile and embedded systems) has many useful out the box UI controls to build modern interactive desktop apps. These include buttons, checkboxes, list views, labels etc, that can be configured and styled in countless ways. I’ve using them for many years at work building mapping apps! - Source: dev.to / 9 months ago

• Finally passed C195 Software 2, AMA!

  As I'm typing this, I'm realizing that the 4 part webinar actually sets up a lot of it. By this point, you should have installed: your IDE (I used intellliJ), the Java SDK, downloaded the JavaFX file here(that you'll manually add into your project structure), and the MySQL connector J file.

  What I did so far: - I've downloaded JavaFX SDK, Scene Builder and Documentation from https://openjfx.io/ - I've extracted JavaFX .zip file on my C drive inside Java folder, outside of jdk-17 folder (img) - Following this video I've managed to get JavaFX to work with my personal non-Maven projects.

• I was curious how Java FX looks like and asked my groupmate to share his project with me. I saw this and understood why he didn't want to share it.

  JavaFx has plenty of visual samples under the community section https://openjfx.io/. Source: about 1 year ago

• A little help with java?

  It seems that you are trying to run an application made with https://openjfx.io/, But that the said jar does not embed it. So it crashes when looking for the class javafx.application.Application. You should have openjfx installed on your machine or find another jar file that does include all it's needed dependencies. Source: over 1 year ago

• WebFX - A JavaFX to JavaScript application transpiler. Write your WebApp in JavaFX and WebFX will transpile it in pure JS.

  JavaFX has been open-sourced after Oracle dropped it, and it's still in active development (they just released version 19 a month ago, see https://openjfx.io and https://github.com/openjdk/jfx). Also Gluon (https://gluonhq.com) made the toolchain to compile it into native apps for Linux, macOS, Windows, Android & iOS. So with now WebFX compiling it to the web, you get a fully cross-platform UI toolkit that lets... Source: over 1 year ago

• Java GUI Framework to learn in 2022?

  JavaFX has the equivalent of a DOM tree, and is much easier to learn. If you've accessed HTML with JavaScript, some of that knowledge will be transferable. Swing has more than a few weird and arbitrary complications. On the downside, JavaFX is an external library, not part of core Java, so it really helps to have something like Maven to assist with building a project. There's good documentation for JavaFX at...

• What does everyone use for GUI work?

  100% this. There's lots of cool things you can do with it. I'd suggest taking a gander at https://openjfx.io/ and https://www.jfx-central.com/home. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Microsoft begins “Extinguish” phase of dealing with Open Source

  >> What is Java's equivalent of Xamarin or Avalonia? Xamarin - RoboVM was a Java-based competitor to Xamarin which Xamarin acquired in 2015, but it was shutdown in 2017 after Microsoft acquired Xamarin. There are some Java-based toolkits such as https://www.codenameone.com/ that target mobile, but they are probably not as well funded as Xamarin has been under Microsoft. From what I hear Xamarin will be... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Java GUI framework?

  Documentation for JavaFX is nearly non-existent (although they did recently add a pretty nice document to https://openjfx.io so it is getting better). Source: almost 2 years ago

• can sb Help me! My Boss wants me to do this for his kids but i dont know how in Java fx

  If you actually want to learn about it, I'd start by designing something in SceneBuilder (https://openjfx.io/) and using a library like Afterburner.fx to hook it up (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqkbu1IrHSw (short) or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsV7kSSSOGs (long)).

• I'd like to create a front-end in Java

  If it’s desktop javafx has some cool ui and has matured now. Https://openjfx.io/ . If it’s going to be web I would advice to use a js framework than java. Source: almost 2 years ago

• confusion?

  It's probably a dependency of MCreator. If you don't know what something is, and it starts when you open an app, it's likely a dependency. And why didn't you think to Google it? https://openjfx.io/ This took me all of 5 seconds to find. Seems like it's MCreator's graphics library. Source: about 2 years ago

• Abandoning JavaFX was a mistake

  Documentation for JavaFX has definitely always been an issue. However, they did very recently make some improvements in this area: https://fxdocs.github.io/docs/html5/ (this is linked from the Documentation section on https://openjfx.io, of course the Documentation section isn't directly linkable which is awful).
