Recently I have been experimenting with the combination of JavaFX and Kotlin. As Kotlin also runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and is a very close sister of Java, the switch is straightforward. I’m not making full use of what Kotlin can offer (non-blocking coroutines for example) as this is still a learning path for me… But I want to show you in this tutorial the difference in code style.
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.
For a personal pet project, I started experimenting with JavaFX and Kotlin to create a user interface with a lot of Java / Kotlin background processing. As I knew there is a book available on this specific topic, Apress was so kind to send me a review copy of Frontend Development with JavaFX and Kotlin: Build State-of-the-Art Kotlin GUI Applications by Peter Späth (152 pages, 48€ on paper, 35.5€ for ebook on Amazon.nl).
