JavaFX Introduction tutorial

JavaFX is a language for create and deploy rich client graphical user interface(GUI) applications. JavaFX is a next generation graphical user interface toolkit. It is intended to replace java Swing as the standard GUI library for Java SE.IT enable doveloper to design, create, test,debug, and deploy rich client applications. Javafx have include a feature of customised style using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) style and another thing is that it include XML language so it make easy to build or dovelope an application.

IN javafx there is a drag and drop designer available which is known as scane builder. By this it make our work very easy to design an application. So we have to just drag and drop then customise css and you can also add functionality.

The appearance of JavaFX applications can be customized by CSS and it separate look and style from implementation so that developers can concentrate on internal Dovelopment(functionality)not on look and feels.If you prefer to design UIs without writing code, then use JavaFX Scene Builder (as describe above). As you design the UI, Scene Builder creates FXML markup that can be used to add the business logic.
