Peter Späth 
Frontend Development with JavaFX and Kotlin [PDF ebook] 
Build State-of-the-Art Kotlin GUI Applications

поддержка

Build elegant, responsive, and stable Java Virtual Machine-based client applications (Fat Clients) with modern user interfaces. This book introduces Java FX as a frontend technology and utilizes Kotlin instead of Java for coding program artifacts to boost code expressiveness and maintainability. Author Peter Späth employs 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 Java FX and frontend coding is not essential.

Java FX is a modern frontend programming toolkit equipped with containers, menus, buttons, sliders, text fields, and various other controls necessary for communicating with your users, all of which are covered here. Despite its name, Java FX applications can be coded with programming languages other than Java. The central requirement is that any language targeting Java FX compiles to artifacts runnable on a Java Virtual Machine. Over the course of this book, you’ll learn firsthand why Kotlin, with its elegant and concise syntax, is a perfect match.

After completing Frontend Development With Java FX and Kotlin, you will be able to build frontends 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 Java FX API.

What You Will Learn



  • Create a Java FX + Kotlin development pipeline for Gradle, Eclipse and Intelli J

  • Use Java FX scenes, stages, and nodes/controls
