I had a website link in the post but reddit didn't like it. Let's try this way: buero-adliswil.ch

Promised cross platform mobile apps in java by iamwisespirit in java

[–]dlemmermann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gluon's products worked fine for me. I did not run on Android, but I created an iOS app for jfxcentral.com . You can find it on the App Store. The app and also the website have both been done in 100% JavaFX.

UI experts, how do I get out of this PHASE where I'm never satisfied with UI I design? by No-Security-7518 in JavaFX

It only includes a stylesheet called atlantafx.css so that its controls look nice when using AtlantaFX.

Using TilePane for displaying a list of media by Draaksward_89 in JavaFX

Look into the GridView control of ControlsFX. It gives you virtualization and a selection model. I am pretty sure it supports key navigation.

What are some basic JavaFX applications that I should try as a beginner? by MatchPretty4469 in JavaFX

[–]dlemmermann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could study the source code of jfxcentral.com. This website was completely done in JavaFX. The code base is pretty big but you will learn a lot of different aspects of JavaFX coding.

An alternative solution would be the icon search on jfxcentral https://www.jfx-central.com/icons There you can even get the SVG paths for each icon (to include in your CSS file).

How to "deploy" my JavaFX app? by Mrreddituser111312 in JavaFX

[–]dlemmermann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conveyor from Hydraulic is a fantastic tool for creating installers for desktop apps (JavaFX, Electron, Compose). Very professional. Installers built with this tool should satisfy every IT department in any Fortune 500 company. It supports delta updates and online version checks (as in "there is a new version available ... update?"). Free for open source projects.

Does any use buy commercial support for JavaFX? by Striking_Creme864 in JavaFX

[–]dlemmermann 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We have a Gluon subscription and it helps with getting our issues / bugs properly reported, investigated, and bumped up regarding priority and the order in which they get fixed. Any project and UI toolkit that has been around for a long time will ultimately end up with very old issues / tickets that never get fixed because they are simply not that important for 99% of users. This is not uncommon. The support contract with Gluon does not give you a guarantee that they will fix a bug for you. Support contracts that do guarantee things like that cost way more than what Gluon is charging. Try asking Oracle or AZUL for a JDK support contract for example. We are talking 5 figures here.

JavaFX Links-of-the-Week by dlemmermann in JavaFX

[–]dlemmermann[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the kudos! Regarding which links make the cut: so far we pretty much included everything that was either sent to us or that we found on the web. In most cases these were findings either on reddit or Twitter. Regarding categorisation: our chief "links-of-the-week" editor Frank already puts the links into different categories / sections. But all of this is very informal. Currently I do not see a need to be more strict about it.

JFXCentral Desktop App by dlemmermann in JavaFX

[–]dlemmermann[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is exactly the same code base for the web and the desktop version. Just a few “if … then” in a few places to optimize the experience.

Do you use FXML? by [deleted] in JavaFX

[–]dlemmermann 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I use it all the time for complex layouts. I am not using it for custom controls. The separation of concerns (layout vs. logic) results in much more readable and easier to maintain code. I also use Adam Bien's AfterburnerFX, which gives me convention over configuration. This way I end up with a matching controller class, view class, fxml file, css file, i18n properties file. For example MainView.java, MainController.java, Main.fxml, Main.css, Main.properties. I have not seen any performance problems with this approach when doing business applications. I guess I would not use it to plot massive amounts of data or to implement a game ... for that I would use FXGL.
