Yes! I've managed to deploy my very first 100% Java mobile app in the Google Play Store!

See here play.google.com/store/apps/d...

I've described the process of getting it in the Play Store here www.dotjava.nl/2025/10/05/s...

It's still free and opensource, see github.com/michiel-jfx/... for more

I've also posted this on Mastodon, but why not on both ;)

I've created a 100% #java open source mobile phone app (#android only for now): An Icelandic currency converter (IceCo). The project uses #java, #javafx with #fxml only.

See github.com/michiel-jfx/...

New blog post: The Origin of the Poutsma Principle.
It started as an inside joke at a SpringSource meeting—but the idea stuck: if an API is hard to understand, the design might need work.
