In the previous “JFX In Action” interviews, we already saw combinations of JavaFX with Scala and Kotlin. In this episode, we look at the combination of JavaFX and Quarkus. Thanks to QuarkusFX, we can use the many advantages of the Quarkus system to create a desktop application.
The following “JFX In Action” interview gives insights into a new open-source JavaFX project: Swaggerific. It’s created by Özkan Pakdil, who tells us more about this Postman alternative to interact with REST endpoints documented with a Swagger JSON.
Here is the next “JFX In Action” with Ulas Ergin. He explains how his team uses JavaFX to migrate from a Swing based application, to a Java application which combines the old Swing screens with new React user interfaces.
Here is the next “JFX In Action” with Christoph Schwentker about JabRef, a tool written in Java and JavaFX to collect, organize, and discover literature for research projects.
In the next “JFX In Action”, I’m returning to Televic, one of my former employers, to talk to Ramiro Domínguez Ayub. He explains how they create a tool with JavaFX that is used both internally and by their customers to update a lot of different types of devices on a train, tram, and/or metro.
In the next video in this “JFX In Action” series, I talked with Maciej Gorywoda about FxCalculator, an Android app created with Scala and JavaFX you can find in Google Play.
In the next video in this “JFX In Action” series, I talked with Robert Ladstätter about LogoRRR, an application written with Scala and JavaFX.
In the next video in this “JFX In Action” series, I talked with Christopher Schnick about XPipe.
For the second video in this “JFX In Action” series, I talked to Daniel Zimmermann. He got my attention when he recently tweeted: “To your dismay I have to tell you I write all my desktop applications using Kotlin and JavaFX”. Why is he a big Kotlin AND JavaFX fan? I asked him and got a demo of the network test application that he is working on.
People who follow me, know I have a big love for JavaFX. It’s my go-to for every desktop user interface application I build. I love the simplicity of quickly creating an app that makes full use of the “Java powers” to build both multi-threaded “backend services” combined with a beautiful-looking UI into one executable. I’m starting a new video series “JFX In Action” in which I talk to developers to show the world what is being developed with JavaFX.
Just like Foojay wants to be the starting place for all info related to Java, JFX Central is the place to be for all JavaFX info. The website is a project started by Dirk Lemmermann and has been online since 2021. The team has expanded since then, and the content has been extended, partially by the team, but also thanks to many contributors from the JavaFX community. End of August, a new user interface has been published to replace the initial version.
On Twitter - sorry, X - and Mastodon I asked the following question: “In software development, “Domain-Driven Design” (#DDD) is one of the many great (?) ways to handle a project. But who has experienced other types of DDD in real life, like “Deadline-Driven Development” or “Disaster-Driven Development”, and wants to share her/his experience for a blog? Thanks!”
Some time ago on Twitter, I discovered @OrangoMango, who shared his progress in creating a 3D engine with JavaFX. The shared videos started with a Rubik’s cube in January ’23, over a basic tumbling car in February, to a full Minecraft-like world in April. Who is this @OrangoMango? And why did he take up the challenge to create a 3D engine with Java and JavaFX? Let’s find out…
On Foojay.io, Bazlur Rahman is publishing a series of interviews with various people from the OpenJDK community. I had the honor to be included in this series, and this is a repost.
