No, and we don't intend to provide this. a) I think JavaFX development is better done using the Maven / Gradle JavaFX plugins, and b) it's easy to tweak the configuration and run the NBPackage command to build an installer with the runtime of your choice if you really want this. > Though I’m not likely to use an installer that bundles a JDK with NB, I think > many students/beginners would. They would benefit from having things “just > work” There is already a DEB package here without JDK. I'm working on making sure all the package options can also run with a system JDK out of the box. This would potentially offer us an alternative to the existing NBI installers that we could distribute via ASF. I certainly don't think NBI is the right option in the long term, and we should be looking to use OS native packaging options. Lots of benefits to that besides easier JDK bundling!
