I'm a fan of using JavaFX properties to implement MVVM patterns.

IMHO, it might be worth exploring native debounce/throttle support in JavaFX's event model.

This could potentially improve performance while also enhancing developer convenience.
(Just sharing a thought, not a feature request.)

Looking for feedback:
The JavaFX Properties/listeners approach if really powerful to bind UI components to changing values.

But it is often over-used and the main source of performance issues. It's very easy to kill performance by adding a listener to a property that is modified during layout.

That said, I suspect modifying the event model might be challenging due to backward compatibility concerns.

Will #OpenJFX get merged into #OpenJDK again? It would be a perfect match with the Java on Mobile project by @gluonhq.com and @johanvos.bsky.social ! Read more in this blog post: webtechie.be/post/2025-11...

That doesn't apply to JavaFX. There are many devs, it's used in major corporate projects. But it's not a strategic component for any of the big companies working on openjfx/openjdk, so no devrel, no techvideos, no T&M sales/support... just tons of incoming mail for me.

If you're using the JavaFX "Flowless" library for virtualized controls and are observing sluggish performance, do not add stylesheets to the Virtualized Node. Add them to the Scene. I observed an immediate 10x performance boost by doing this.

I published an interview with Vlad Protsenko about the Cljfx project with a quick intro to #Clojure, demonstration of building a #JavaFX user interface, and an inside look at the @defold.com game engine and its JavaFX IDE.

The JavaFX Builder API has been updated to support JavaFX 25. Since the JavaFX API is quite stable, I believe that supporting it through a code generator approach is straightforward.

Zulu's Java 25 has been added to SDKMAN. You can use it immediately!

JavaFX 25 is available! Released the same day as Java 25.
Get the SDK from gluonhq.com/products/jav... or download the maven artifacts from maven central.

I fixed an issue with the Maven Language Mode extension for VSCode that couldn't format CDATA correctly.

#Java

I have been developing a VSCode extension to generate JavaFX builders, but I decided to rewrite it as a library for a better approach. Recognizing the library's clear potential, I chose to halt the development of the extension.

Happy reading, and have a lovely #Java weekend!

I'm releasing the results of my one month of effort.

The JavaFX Builder API Project provides a builder pattern API for JavaFX UI components, enabling the creation of JavaFX applications through a fluent, strongly typed, and declarative approach.

Hi, I've decided to consolidate my accounts related to JavaFX and PKMS (Logseq and Obsidian) here.
