Elegant, responsive, and stable Java Virtual Machine-based client applications (fat clients) with modern user interfaces can be developed using JavaFX as a front-end technology. This book introduces JavaFX as a front-end technology and uses Kotlin instead of Java for coding program artifacts to improve code expressiveness and maintainability. Author Peter Späth adopts a hands-on approach, providing practical examples and code to demonstrate each concept. Mid-level Java programming knowledge and a basic understanding of Kotlin are the only prerequisites; experience with JavaFX and front-end coding is not essential.
JavaFX is a modern front-end programming toolkit equipped with containers, menus, buttons, sliders, text fields, and various other controls necessary for communicating with your users. All of these are covered here. Despite its name, JavaFX applications can be coded with programming languages other than Java. The central requirement is that any language targeting JavaFX compiles to artifacts runnable on a Java Virtual Machine.
Over the course of this book, you will learn firsthand why Kotlin, with its elegant and concise syntax, is a perfect match. After completing Frontend Development With JavaFX and Kotlin, you will be able to build front ends of mid-to-high level complexity, depending on present Java skills, and use Kotlin as a language for addressing GUI programming needs and accessing the JavaFX API.
What You Will Learn
Create a JavaFX + Kotlin development pipeline for Gradle, Eclipse, and IntelliJ.
Use JavaFX scenes, stages, and nodes/controls.
Master JavaFX event handling, effects, and animation using Kotlin.
Understand the JavaFX Concurrency Framework and Kotlin Coroutines for JavaFX.
Who This Book Is For
Low- to mid-level Java or Kotlin developers with or without JavaFX experience who wish to learn front-end development with JavaFX and Kotlin.
