The RoboVM Maven plugin is now released with JFX support using Danno's backport, which is all in Maven Central.
I talk about it in detail here: http://www.zenjava.com/2013/08/01/javafx-on-ios-using-robovm-and-maven/ I'd greatly appreciate people here trying it out and letting me know fairly quickly if there are any steps I left out or if anything is not working (in terms of the hello world, not bigger issues at this stage). Every time I release or publish something I get a lot of "I don't know how to code and couldn't get past step 2" type requests. These can be very time consuming to work through, since some are real and some are just stupid-user-exceptions. Anything I can head off at the pass is a boon. As per the post, yes, it's slow, yes, it's buggy, yes, it all looks pretty crap at the moment - but it's suppose to. The JFX code has barely been run by the people who wrote it and the RoboVM code is being developed by one guy part time and has not been optimised at all. The fact that it works at all is down right amazing. The point of releasing this code is so the above issues can start being addressed, it's not meant to be perfect. If you want it better, I'm sure Niklas, Danno and Richard are only too happy for you to help out in each of the respective areas where there are known issues. No one ever wants to help out with the build tools, that's a crap job that no sane person would do in their spare time :)
