Technical Overview of Java FX |
| This month's meeting will feature Barry Burd providing a technical overview of JavaFX. What's better than a good windowing API? How about a language that streamlines all aspects of GUI program development? Instead of writing code in a general purpose language, use a no-nonsense declarative language – a language whose purpose is to create cool GUI applications. |
| JavaFX compiles to the Java virtual machine, and is compatible with other Java technologies. The traditional Java libraries are available in JavaFX. JavaFX provides a smooth learning path. Coding in JavaFX is quick and intuitive, with support for everything from simple "Hello GUI" programs to eye-catching media demos. |
