TS-5575 Extreme GUI Makeover - Hybrid Swing and JavaFX Technology

• Why go hybrid? Lots of Swing stuff out there, JavaFX not really designed for heavyweight, enterprise applications
• JavaFX good for UI, not good for logic
• First step - get a GOOD graphic designer!
• Create a JavaFX Stage
• put Swing components in - any Swing components can be embedded - can be treated like any node. Limitation, it's treaded as a single node
  
• Wire components
• FX provides wrappers for many Swing classes
  
• Limitations - JavaFX is single threaded
