  1. Useful-Things

    My opinions on common Java libraries, reverse engineering guides, and some assorted other tips

    You can make a sorta kinda "Multi-platform" JavaFX jar, but only for one architecture per OS. Their dll/so/dylib path names all conflict which is infuriating.

  3. rust-gradlew-locator

    gradlew convenience - gdub clone

  4. LogFX

    LogFX is a simple Log reader supporting color highlighting and able to handle giant files.

    Here's my JavaFX app's GH Actions file, which builds on Linux/Mac/Windows, if that helps.

  5. jdeploy

    Developer friendly desktop deployment tool

    You can try https://www.jdeploy.com. I didn't try it yet. I use GitHub Actions which allow me to deploy to all platforms by just pushing to the master branch (or whichever you set up). It's free for a certain amount of machine runtime minutes. Shouldn't be a problem for a personal application.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
