The online #JavaFX "Ensemble" demos are pretty cool. Wished more library developers would leverage it. www.jfx-ensemble.com @floriankirmaier.bsky.social #java #ui #ux

I finally managed to create a jdeploy installer for #FlexGanttFX. You can find it on the updated FlexGanttFX.com website under "Downloads/Demo". The demo shows how this custom #javafx component manages to draw thousands and thousands of activities below a timeline. #java #ui #ux

A big advantage of #FxmlKit compared to afterburner.fx is the fact that you can see the name of the FxmlView subclass inside the scenegraph (see "PaymentPlanView" in screenshot). In afterburner.fx the root node defined in the FXML file would appear. @leewyatt.bsky.social

Release 1.3.0 of #FxmlKit is out now fixing an issue related to hot reloading of user agent stylesheets of custom controls. It had too many side-effects. It can still be enabled but by default it is off. #javafx #java #ui #ux

Check out #FXMLKit. Another convention-over-configuration framework that removes boilerplate code for loading screens done in #FXML.

It is inspired by afterburner.fx but also supports JPro multi-user sessions and dependency injection for nested components.

I have added a new "StretchingTilePane" container to #GemsFX 3.6.1 so that I can finally create a nice responsive tile-based layout for the module selection view of our CRM solution. The default #JavaFX TilePane does not fill the available width. #java #ui #ux
