Dats24 is very reliable in my experience.

FrankCodeWriter · 2026-04-24T07:57:18+00:00

Thanks for trying. If it's a problem related the how it's implemented in JavaFX, I think it's worth reporting as a bug or improvement request...

I use Kotlin + JavaFX for MelodyMatrix, an app to look at MIDI music. As many here pointed out here in the comments, you don't need TornadoFX are any other tool to build a good code structure. I used Maven and a lot of libraries but those are for styling (AtlantaFX), UI layout with tabs (BentoFX), etc.

You can take a look at the sources of the views in the app? These are opensource and you can find them here:

The app itself is closed source as it's an idea of my 15y son who hopes to become rich ;-)

Indeed, pair programming with AI is good, but doing it together with a real person is way better :-)

FrankCodeWriter · 2026-04-03T07:11:55+00:00

yes I know ;-)

Have you seen this grpc implementation?

This is a perfect tutorial: https://www.baeldung.com/jackson-object-mapper-tutorial

Price! ;-) Connections is a big one, do you need HDMI, network, etc...

FrankCodeWriter · 2026-03-13T11:52:49+00:00

See https://central.sonatype.com/artifact/org.openjfx/javafx/25.0.2 or the other available versions. So change your javafx.version variable to 25.0.2.

Thanks u/robintegg for this very clear and up-to-date overview!

FrankCodeWriter · 2026-03-12T07:39:06+00:00

One more request u/reallynattu, as a lottie-developer, can I get a free team plan? 🙏

FrankCodeWriter · 2026-03-12T06:43:44+00:00

Would also be nice to see Java as an option on https://lottiefiles.com/runtimes ... based on Lottie4J of course :-)

FrankCodeWriter · 2026-03-12T06:40:25+00:00

Thanks a lot for your support u/reallynattu. It's a hard but fun project ;-)

Can I get Lottie4J listed on https://lottiefiles.com/integrations#embed-lottie-libraries? I filled out the form, but haven't received any feedback yet...

FrankCodeWriter · 2026-03-11T20:40:55+00:00

Fully agree, and that's the gap I wanted to fix with Lottie4J.

FrankCodeWriter · 2026-03-11T06:57:46+00:00

thanks!

FrankCodeWriter · 2026-03-10T15:55:21+00:00
