scalaonandroid VS jfx

Here's the 1.0.0 version of FxCalculator

Im my free time I experiment with the GraalVM approach, which is quite different (JavaFX or ScalaFX for GUI, no Android SDK). You can take a look here: https://github.com/makingthematrix/scalaonandroid

https://github.com/makingthematrix/scalaonandroid - that's my weekend project

I'm experimenting with this idea: https://github.com/makingthematrix/scalaonandroid

You can build a mobile app with GraalVM Native Image and JavaFX, but without Gluon - I have one such example: https://github.com/makingthematrix/scalaonandroid/tree/main/HelloFXML

In my case, I put them as separate files in the resources/ folder, like here with main.fxml and history.fxml. And then I load them separately in the code:

https://github.com/makingthematrix/scalaonandroid - Here's a repo where I'm doing some experiments with this approach, putting Scala on top of it (it's GraalVM so I can write in Scala if I want to, ha).

This can feel a bit hacky, but... here's my tutorial how to use GraalVM and Gluon to write an Android app in Scala. You can follow it step by step, just ignore the Scala part. https://github.com/makingthematrix/scalaonandroid

Here's how to make an Android native image with Graal, but a desktop one is not much different: https://github.com/makingthematrix/scalaonandroid

Important message in the release notes: "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."

JavaFX 17 requires at JDK 11 or later (release notes), so the short answer is that you can't do this.

JavaFX has been open-sourced after Oracle dropped it, and it's still in active development (they just released version 19 a month ago, see https://openjfx.io and https://github.com/openjdk/jfx). Also Gluon (https://gluonhq.com) made the toolchain to compile it into native apps for Linux, macOS, Windows, Android & iOS. So with now WebFX compiling it to the web, you get a fully cross-platform UI toolkit that lets you target all major platforms (Desktops, Web, Tablets & Mobiles) from a single Java code base. That's why I think it is interesting, especially for Java developers.
