JavaFX now at 1.0!

December 5th, 2008 by Lars Ottesen Henriksen

Back in my Sun Campus Ambassador pages, we had a JavaFX Alpha session about this “new language” that would come out in a couple of years… Well, those years are now gone and JavaFX is now at 1.0! So definitely have a look at the JavaFX website and when you want to try it (because you will), use NetBeans which is the official IDE for JavaFX – they’ve even made a special JavaFX bundle. I was quite amazed at how easy it was to make great looking flash-ish/Web 2.0 applications with very little knowledge about the language so I’m excited to try the first real release – I’ll definitely be downloading it this weekend…

    Yet another RIA… Seems like a trend for big IT companies these days.

    Anyways, I too already downloaded it and will be hacking away over the weekend =).
