JavaFX Chepaki Client tier of the Chepaki platform is my first JavaFX Application.
What Is JavaFX?
JavaFX is a set of
graphics and media packages that enables developers to design,
create, test, debug, and deploy rich client applications that
operate consistently across diverse platforms.
This is my opinion about JavaFX.
JavaFX in
combination with stream is a fantastic fast customizable (via css)
development platform for the client. It is easy to populate tables,
list and all the multi-component GUI. But I also noted that it is
not widely used for the desktop with the single JavaScript fit all
system nowadays. I also think that the property based population of
GUI components, is something to get used to. Everything must have a
property attach to it. But in comparison to swing it is fast and
with a little creativity you can design eye-candy clients. The skin
can also be easy changeable by using multiple css configuration.
Unlike swing you creativity is the limit and you are not limit to,
the build in, or imported Look&AndFeel.
With every project we design we tend to write a blog about our experience working on it. The blog conveys our opinion on the technology we employ on the drawback and the reward of using this technology.
