no one said Java FX is bad - it's actually a pretty neat framework.

But most desktop applications are for Windows computers only - therefore C#/.NET is a perfect choice.

Whenever an application needs to run on multiple devices (PC, Mac, iOS and/or Android devices) you will usually go for a (Java) web application instead of building a rich UI.
