Should I learn JavaFX for cross-platform desktop development?

Question

Java

Is it worth bothering and learning JavaFX if before that I worked only with Android ( Java ) and sometimes Unity3D ( C# ).
If there is no future in FX, what should you pay attention to so that it would not be very painful to relearn?

Answer 1

QtQuick.

Answer 2

it all depends on the tasks, I like java and java fx, but I don’t like that if you pack jre into an application, it turns out something indecent in terms of size, on the other hand, I don’t like qt creator and c ++ for application software ... like that too much ...
for a number of tasks, pyqt + pycharm became the way out for me,
this is just my IMHO, look at your tasks

Answer 3

Depending on what you want to write. If something is simple, then JavaFX will do just fine, but if the task is to write something more complicated like software for trading / accounting, etc., then it is better to look towards learning the NetBeans platform.
And yes, Oracle is developing JavaFX as a replacement for the current set of Swing/AWT, so Java is the future of desktop development.
