<title>Links Of The Week - 24-03-2023</title>
<link>https://jfx-central.com</link>
<description><ul>
<li>Together with the <a href="https://foojay.io/today/its-java-20-release-day-heres-whats-new/">release of OpenJDK 20</a>, we also got the release of OpenJFX 20. Both right on schedule, as always!
<ul>
<li><a href="https://foojay.social/@[email protected]/110061453814740449">Announcement by <strong>Gluon</strong></a>.</li>
<li>Downloads are also provided via <a href="https://mastodon.social/@openjdk/110073623815076629">OpenJDK on jdk.java.net</a>.</li>
<li>Important message <a href="https://github.com/openjdk/jfx/blob/jfx20/doc-files/release-notes-20.md">in the release notes</a>: &quot;JavaFX 20 is compiled with --release 17 and thus requires JDK 17 or later in order to run. If you attempt to run with an older JDK, the Java launcher will exit with an error message indicating that the javafx.base module cannot be read.&quot;</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/johanvos/status/1638168304664694787">Most important highlight for <strong>Johan Vos</strong></a>: &quot;apps created many years ago still run on the latest JavaFX with latest OS. That is far from trivial, require lots of work, and not very common in client frameworks.&quot;</li>
<li>And another <a href="https://mastodon.social/@johanvos/110061627191368710">quote from <strong>Johan</strong></a>: &quot;I remember people and companies telling me 5 years ago they love Java and JavaFX, but they were pretty sure JavaFX would not be around in 2 years from them. So they used other client technologies... which don't exist anymore today... while JavaFX... keeps moving forward. With less hype, and less marketing power than other client frameworks, but with dedication and focus on quality, stability and community.&quot;
And with tons of stuff todo, I 100% realize that.&quot;</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>A <a href="https://twitter.com/Raumzeitfalle/status/1638993956796239873">request by <strong>Raumzeitfalle</strong></a>: &quot;If you like Java and JavaFX, give Scene Builder Leadinge Edge a try. Its latest version runs with Java 20 using JavaFX 20 and it combines many of the pending PRs so that one can test the functionality. Feel free to share your feedback on Github.&quot;</li>
<li><strong>Dirk Lemmermann</strong> again shared a lot of JavaFX library and other info:
<ul>
<li>&quot;If any of you work on <a href="https://twitter.com/dlemmermann/status/1638910874261000192">planning and scheduling applications I can highly recommend #FlexGanttFX for visualizing plans / schedules</a>. Yes, it is a commercial library.&quot;</li>
<li>&quot;If your JavaFX application requires an <a href="https://twitter.com/dlemmermann/status/1638903750726418432">on-screen keyboard, you might wanna check out KeyboardFX</a>.&quot;</li>
<li>A screenshot of the new market data portal he is creating, <a href="https://twitter.com/dlemmermann/status/1638854795074338816">running in a browser</a>.</li>
<li>The new <a href="https://twitter.com/dlemmermann/status/1638103850107260930">calendar view in GemsFX now also supports &quot;date range&quot; selection</a> (and single date, multiple dates selection).</li>
<li>Thanks to <a href="https://twitter.com/dlemmermann/status/1638107356188798977"><strong>Florian Kirmaier</strong>, GemsFX has been extended with a great utility class for synchronous scrolling of two VirtualFlow instances</a>.</li>
<li>And he's worried about his job as <a href="https://twitter.com/dlemmermann/status/1638137320846106625">&quot;ChatGPT &quot;generates&quot; a JavaFX app based on requirements&quot;</a>. That's probably thanks to the stability of the API over the last years!</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/WhiteWoodCity/status/1638528428440944640"><strong>WhiteWoodCity</strong> shared a video</a> of rougelike game prototype.
<ul>
<li>And shared how he created a <a href="https://twitter.com/WhiteWoodCity/status/1636904813228331010">pseudo 3D effect like Street of Rage, Dragon's Crown</a> with two GameSubScene and two entities of each GameWorld, and binding their properties with very clean and neat code.</li>
</ul>
</li>

</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/rnartist_app/status/1637923762438918150"><strong>RNArtist</strong> shared again an impressive video</a> showing RNA visualization with JavaFX.
<ul>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/rnartist_app/status/1637912428276072448">&quot;In RNAStudio, you can animate the transcription process</a> along one of the computed folding pathways. When a new helix pops, it is first highlighted then added to the 2D. You can stop/restart the animation, go backwards/forwards.&quot;</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/invokecoley/status/1637693418192228352"><strong>Matt Coley</strong> has a long Twitter thread about new the Recaf UI JavaFX work</a>, starting with a 'please wait while the decompiler runs' animation that pulls hex dumps from the class being decompiled, and many more each with a video.</li>

The very early steps are taken with a website, Mastodon account, different Lottie JSON files can already be loaded and saved back to the same JSON, and a very first visual output shows there is some valid data being handled. Maybe you have ideas how to move on with visualizing and animating in JavaFX and want to contribute?
<ul>

<description><ul>
<li><a href="https://techhub.social/@gluonhq/109710794664474768"><strong>Gluon</strong> announced the first set of JavaFX releases in 2023</a>:
<ul>
<li>JavaFX 19.0.2: public release containing some updates and security patches to JavaFX 19.</li>
<li>JavaFX 11.0.18 and JavaFX 17.0.6: for LTS customers who keep supporting the development, and who make it possible to move JavaFX forward.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/JavaFX3D/status/1615214627868246016">Shared by <strong>JavaFX3D</strong></a>: &quot;Go from Figma to a fully Responsive JavaFX Application with support for navigation, responsive sizes, images and more.&quot;</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/HbotondS/status/1615328894382473219"><strong>Botond Hegyi</strong> already had some experience with JavaFX game development</a>, but he found out working with <a href="https://twitter.com/AlmasBaim">FXGL by <strong>Almas Baim</strong></a> is sooo much easier.</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/WhiteWoodCity/status/1615311572397883395"><strong>WhiteWoodCity</strong> shared a video</a> of a self-made TableView.
<ul>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/dlemmermann/status/1615385837432184832"><strong>Dirk Lemmermann</strong> replied this is actually an important tweet</a>. as many JavaFX developers think they &quot;have to&quot; use the TableView, and then complain about its limitations. Using GridPane you can create your own custom table view, as most HTML devs do for tables.</li>
<li>And <a href="https://twitter.com/WhiteWoodCity/status/1614644198187347970">another video showing a HDFS management system created with JavaFX</a>.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/MattColey6/status/1614826723127836672"><strong>Matt Coley</strong> discovered that JavaFX CSS allows you to effectively create borders</a> just with the background color/insets property. This fixes the effect of changes in the component when you add a border, and padding changes are needed.
<ul>
<li>And he shared a <a href="https://twitter.com/MattColey6/status/1616044636199440384">preview of the new attach window in Recaf (Java bytecode editor)</a>, that shows remote process properties and JMX beans, and indicates which JVM you're attached to with highlighted components.</li>

<description><p>Best wishes for 2023!
Hoping for a successful, healthy and peaceful year...</p>
<p>It has been two weeks since the previous LinksOfTheWeek, so a lot to share. I'm sure there was even much more, but these are the ones I noticed...</p>

<title>Links Of The Week - 18-11-2022</title>
<link>https://jfx-central.com</link>
<description><ul>
<li>A lot of the Links Of The Week are found on Twitter. But for a few weeks that medium lost a lot of its fun (in my opinion) since the take-over by Musk. So I'm slowly moving to Mastodon as my new &quot;source of truth and inspiration&quot;. It is a-kind-of-Twitter-alternative, free of advertisements and based on an opensource project. And then it's fun to <a href="https://bigshoulders.city/@wakingrufus/109344242897231710">discover an (old) Mastodon client application</a> in Kotlin and TornadoFX by <a href="https://bigshoulders.city/@wakingrufus"><strong>wakingrufus</strong></a>. You can <a href="https://github.com/wakingrufus/mastodon-jfx">find it on GitHub</a>. It probably needs some updates, but it could be the start of something fun. Take a look!
<ul>
<li>If you want to create a Mastodon account or want to move to a server dedicated to the OpenJDK, Java, JavaFX, JVM,... community, you can join <a href="https://foojay.social"><strong>foojay.social</strong></a> that was created this week. For more info, check the <a href="https://foojay.io/today/foojay-mastodon-service-here-it-is/">posts on Foojay.io, the website for the Friends Of OpenJDK</a>.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/rladstaetter"><strong>Robert Ladstätter</strong></a>, creator of LogoRRR, is looking for help: <a href="https://github.com/rladstaetter/LogoRRR/issues/12">&quot;How can you extract time instant information from log files&quot;</a>.</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/realThanhpv"><strong>Thanhpv</strong></a> shared some <a href="https://twitter.com/realThanhpv/status/1590306623364665345">first screenshots of a new JavaFX application</a> to quickly and accurately build visualized and transparent construction quantity reports for resource planning, cost estimation, risk management.,... To be continued...</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/JavaFX3D"><strong>JavaFX3D</strong></a> again shared a lot of interesting projects. One we want to include here is a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=1337&amp;v=jCBBCBCUt9E&amp;feature=youtu.be">video showing a Space Invaders game</a> by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@chalodss"><strong>Charles T. (A Bit's Odyssey)</strong></a> (explanation in French).</li>
<li>Found on reddit:
<ul>
<li>A <a href="https://github.com/AmirAli-AZ/PeriodicTable">simple periodic table app for chemistry lovers on GitHub</a> by <strong>AmirAli</strong>, based on this <a href="https://github.com/Bowserinator/Periodic-Table-JSON">periodic table JSON</a>.</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/Polypragmatist"><strong>Dave Barret</strong></a> has a lot of very nice tutorials on his site! For instance <a href="https://www.pragmaticcoding.ca/javafx/Mvci-Introduction">&quot;An Introduction to Model-View-Controller-Interactor&quot;</a>.</li>

<description><ul>
<li>At JavaOne on October 20th, some JavaFX related announcements were made.
<ul>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/JavaFXpert/status/1583174188587589632">A tweet</a> by <a href="https://twitter.com/JavaFXpert"><strong>James Weaver</strong></a>: &quot;Great #JavaFX announcements from @kevinrushforth after being introduced by @mono_quito89 at #JavaOne, while bandmate and @Java legend @BrianVerm mixes drinks. Friend and colleague @johanvos at @GluonHQ highlighted in the process.&quot;</li>
<li>And a <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/posts/btratra_java-javafx-openjdk-activity-6988940880757882880-s4RA?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop">LinkedIn message</a> by <a href="https://twitter.com/BTraTra"><strong>Bernard Traversat</strong></a>: &quot;We announced today we will be producing JavaFX build for JDK 20! Providing a modern UI toolkit for the Java platform will continue to make Java the most compelling platform for educators to teach programming and for UI innovators to explore new rich application UI designs.&quot;</li>
<li>So the latest JavaFX will not only be available on the <a href="https://gluonhq.com/products/javafx/">Gluon website</a>, but also on <a href="https://jdk.java.net/javafx20/">jdk.java.net/javafx20</a>.</li>
<li>Curious what the impact of this announcement will be and what we can share here next week...</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Last week at <a href="https://twitter.com/Devoxx"><strong>Devoxx</strong></a> in Antwerp (Belgium) the tweet wall was a crucial part of the information exchange between the visitors, showing the upcoming talks, highest ranked talks, etc. This tweet wall is a community effort driven by <a href="https://twitter.com/jugbodensee"><strong>@jugbodensee</strong></a> members, with the support of Gluon, and the <a href="https://github.com/TweetWallFX/TweetwallFX">sources are on GitHub</a>.
<ul>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/johanvos"><strong>Johan Vos</strong></a> shared a <a href="https://twitter.com/johanvos/status/1580097937270788096">picture in a tweet</a>.</li>
<li>By the way (1), TweetwallFX has its own <a href="https://twitter.com/TweetwallFX">Twitter account @TweetwallFX</a>.</li>
<li>By the way (2), the official “Devoxx” mobile app is also a JavaFX project, created by Gluon, that you can find <a href="https://github.com/devoxx/MyDevoxxGluon">on GitHub</a>. Check the GitHub workflows to learn <a href="https://github.com/devoxx/MyDevoxxGluon/tree/main/.github/workflows">more about how it is building and publishing to the Google and Apple stores</a>.</li>
</ul>
</li>

<li><a href="https://twitter.com/dlemmermann"><strong>Dirk Lemmermann</strong></a> shared <a href="https://twitter.com/dlemmermann/status/1582021109423042562">a screenshot in a tweet</a> of the <a href="https://github.com/openjdk/jfx/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aopen+label%3Arfr">pull requests in the openjdk/jfx project</a>: &quot;Wow, 47 pull requests &quot;ready for review&quot; in #OpenJFX. Looks like we have a traffic jam. Some several years old. Some ending with last comment &quot;can you review this?&quot; :-) Hope Oracle really does increase their #javafx team member count.&quot;
<ul>
<li>And he also <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwVXO0MdIdk">shared this video</a> showing a custom JavaFX control that can be used to display groups of notifications either expanded or as a stack, inspired by the MacOS notification center. However, plenty of customisation options via API or CSS are available to make this control fit into any application.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/lanthale"><strong>Clemens Lanthaler</strong></a> released <a href="https://www.jfx-central.com/real_world/photoslide">PhotoSlide 1.3</a> with many small updates and fixes including new version of librawfx and libheiffx and updates to JDK19/Javafx19 with better Multi-Threading again.</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/P_Duke"><strong>Pedro Duque Vieira</strong></a> added again a new control to FXComponents library: ReordableListView, a ListView that can be reordered with the mouse by drag and dropping its cells and also supports drag and dropping from an outside source into a ListView cell position as you can see <a href="https://twitter.com/P_Duke/status/1582732021448978433">in the video in this Tweet</a>.</li>
<li>A <a href="https://github.com/rladstaetter/LogoRRR/releases/tag/22.3.0">new release 22.3.0</a> of LogoRRR - log file viewer - <a href="https://twitter.com/logorrr/status/1581654374719557632">has been announced</a>.</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/WebFXProject"><strong>WebFX</strong></a> - a JavaFX to JavaScript transpiler - can now access local files, as you can read on <a href="https://github.com/webfx-project/webfx/discussions/14">this GitHub discussion</a>, with a <a href="https://files.webfx.dev/">demo on files.webfx.dev</a>.</li>

<description><ul>
<li>JavaFX 19 just got released a few weeks ago, but <a href="https://twitter.com/johanvos"><strong>Johan Vos</strong></a> is already <a href="https://twitter.com/johanvos/status/1575159889994911744?t=PJn2au0k_icq2qseeLVOXA&amp;s=09">looking forward</a> to the next one: <em>a really-worth-mentioning improvement that will be in JavaFX 20 is the update to MarlinFX 0.9.4.6 by <a href="https://twitter.com/laurent_bourges"><strong>Laurent Bourgès</strong></a>. Thank you very much Laurent for your contributions. They are an important part to the success of JavaFX. See <a href="https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8287604">JDK-8287604</a>.</em>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://github.com/users/bourgesl/projects/1/views/1">Laurent is even sharing his TODO list on GitHub</a> in case you are curious about what he is working on...</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/dlemmermann"><strong>Dirk Lemmermann</strong></a> announced <a href="https://twitter.com/dlemmermann/status/1576974458761486338">in a tweet</a> version 11.12.1 of CalendarFX with new views for displaying resource allocations, improved editing behaviour, plenty of fixes and enhancements. You can <a href="https://github.com/dlsc-software-consulting-gmbh/CalendarFX">find it on GitHub</a>, and new link for the <a href="https://dlsc-software-consulting-gmbh.github.io/CalendarFX/">documentation is here</a>.</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/rladstaetter"><strong>Robert Ladstätter</strong></a> wanted to use JavaFX on a Windows aarch64 (virtual) machine, and <a href="http://ladstatt.blogspot.com/2022/10/a-javafx-fanboy-forgets-about-his.html">described the process to build it from the sources</a>.</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/AlmasBaim/"><strong>Almas Baim</strong></a> shared <a href="https://twitter.com/AlmasBaim/status/1576154186315882496">a video in a tweet</a> showing a bridge generated with FXGL (game engine) to illustrate a distance joint (which constrains two entities to preserve their distance to each other) that produces some interesting results. Entities with different densities are thrown at it and fly through the screen using physics.</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/cpreisler"><strong>Chad Preisler</strong></a> shared <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auao5UNrUcg">a video showing how to create a form using SceneBuilder and JavaFX</a>, getting the form to resize the correct way.</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/orango_mango">OrangoMango</a> shared a <a href="https://github.com/OrangoMango/RubikCube">project to visualize and solve a Rubik's Cube with JavaFX</a>, that is also available as an Android APK. It's inspired by a <a href="https://github.com/gluonhq/gluon-samples/tree/master/rubiks-cube">similar example created by Gluon</a>.</li>
<li>Devoxx Belgium is next week (10-14 October) and the organization is <a href="https://twitter.com/Devoxx/status/1577934708100456448">thanking Gluon in a tweet</a> for their continued support for the #OSS Devoxx mobile app. Sources of the DevoxxBadges JavaFX app <a href="https://github.com/gluonhq/DevoxxBadges">are available on GitHub</a>.</li>
<li>New content on jfx-central.com:
<ul>
<li>Real World App: <a href="https://www.jfx-central.com/real_world/jabref">JabRef</a> is an open-source, cross-platform citation and reference management tool, see <a href="https://www.jabref.org/">jabref.org</a>.</li>
<li>Tool: <a href="https://www.jfx-central.com/tools/conveyor">&quot;Conveyor&quot;</a> by <a href="https://twitter.com/HydraulicCorp"><strong>Hydraulic</strong></a>, is an alternative/replacement for the jpackage tool but with support for (background) updates, signing, notarisation.</li>
<li>Another library by <a href="https://twitter.com/P_Duke"><strong>Pedro Duque Vieira</strong></a>: <a href="https://www.jfx-central.com/libraries/fxparallax">FXParallax</a>. This framework adds controls to add Parallax effects to JavaFX application, this effect can add a sense of depth (3D like) to where it’s used.</li>
<li>Coming soon... <a href="https://twitter.com/FlorianKirmaier"><strong>Florian Kirmaier</strong></a> is pimping the jfx-central website to make it much faster very soon. Due to the architecture of <a href="https://www.jpro.one/">jpro.one</a>, scrolling in a ScrollPane requires server calls (as the JavaFX app lives on the server). A custom skin, should bring a solution...</li>

<description><ul>
<li>Not from this week (15th of September) but still an interesting read as it lists some of the highlights of JavaFX 19: <a href="https://www.infoworld.com/article/3673888/javafx-19-rich-client-java-platform-arrives.html">&quot;JavaFX 19 rich client Java platform arrives&quot;</a> on InfoWorld by <a href="https://twitter.com/pjkrill"><strong>Paul Krill</strong></a>.</li>
<li>An <a href="https://github.com/wiverson/maven-jpackage-template/issues/75">interesting discussion in the GitHub
maven-jpackage-template project</a> - a project by <a href="https://twitter.com/wiverson"><strong>Will Iverson</strong></a> to provide a template project for native desktop applications. Seems there is often a request for a Spring Boot UI template. Let's keep an eye on this &quot;BootFX idea&quot; that could be a using the JavaFX embedded web browser.</li>
<li>Today, <a href="https://twitter.com/gail_asgteach"><strong>Gail Anderson</strong></a> is speaking on <a href="https://pages.jetbrains.com/intellij-idea-conf-2022">IntelliJ IDEA Conference</a> about &quot;JavaFX for Mobile Development&quot;. A preview is available on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4gn_wgaGng">YouTube</a>, hopefully we can share the recording here next time.</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/SerendigityInfo"><strong>Serendipity</strong></a> announced on Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/SerendigityInfo/status/1573611549335457793">SmartFinder 1.5.3</a>, the first app published on Apple Store with Java 19 and JavaFX 19!</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/WebFXProject"><strong>WebFX</strong></a> - a JavaFX to JavaScript transpiler - announced a <a href="https://demofx.webfx.dev/">new demo on their website</a>, based on the excellent <a href="https://github.com/chriswhocodes/DemoFX">DemoFX library</a> by <a href="https://twitter.com/chriswhocodes"><strong>Chris Newman</strong></a>. The demo starts with an introductory animation, asking to click in order to play the actual demo, because in the browser sandbox, playing sound is not permitted before interacting with the user. The resulted demo is just one single java source file. Warning, looking at the demo for too long time can cause brain damage or hypnosis ;-)</li>
<li>The demos of the visual modeler, written in JavaFX and integrating OpenCV, by <a href="https://twitter.com/Alessio_Vinerbi"><strong>Alessio Vinerbi</strong></a> are really amazing. Look at <a href="https://twitter.com/Alessio_Vinerbi/status/1573971580409061376">the video in this tweet</a> where he modifies two videos on the fly with different visual effects.</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/P_Duke"><strong>Pedro Duque Vieira</strong></a> tweeted that he is working on a new controls library, soon to be released. <a href="https://twitter.com/P_Duke/status/1572593466286428161">It shows a video of the ListBuilder control with support for drag and dropping of cells</a>.</li>

<description><ul>
<li>Russia has attacked <strong>Ukraine</strong>. Please make a donation if you want to help the people in Ukraine. For example to the <a href="https://www.icrc.org/en/donate/ukraine">international red cross</a>.</li>
<li><strong>Andres Almiray</strong> has <a href="https://andresalmiray.com/jreleaser-1-0-0-m3-has-been-released/">released version 1.0.0-M3 of JReleaser</a>, a general purpose solution for assembling, packaging, distributing and announcing new software releases. With its top-notch support for jlink and jpackage it is ideal for doing exactly that for JavaFX applications.</li>
<li><strong>Dirk Lemmermann</strong> <a href="https://github.com/dlemmermann/jfxcentral/releases/tag/early-access">announced the availability of desktop versions</a> of JFXCentral for MacOSX, Windows, and Ubuntu.</li>
<li><strong>JPRO</strong> has <a href="https://www.jpro.one/docs/current/3.1/2022.1.X">released version 2022-1-0 of JPro</a>, which is a solution for running JavaFX applications in browsers. The latest release supports dark mode detection, virtual images, real time updates for writable images, and theme colors. Theme colors cause the browser to pick up the color and use it for its toolbar (Safari, MacOS, Unified Toolbar setting).</li>
<li><strong>JPRO</strong> <a href="https://www.jpro.one/docs/current/2.12/JPro_Loadbalancer_(Early_Access)">announced the availability</a> of an early-access release of JPro with support for built-in load balancing, which will allow JavaFX applications to run in the browser and use multiple JVMs on the server side. One possible use-case would be the use of a dedicated JVM for each session / user. This makes migration of existing JavaFX applications trivial as multi-session support is no longer a requirement for the apps.</li>
<li><strong>Dirk Lemmermann</strong> has updated the JFXCentral website to use <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqAsIcoN9MY">dark mode detection (YouTube video)</a>.</li>
<li>The <strong>Java Client Development Team</strong> at Oracle has <a href="https://inside.java/2022/03/03/ojp-javafx-developer/">published a job posting looking for a JavaFX engineer</a>.</li>
