Re: JavaScript library for JavaFX fans?

2014-12-16 Thread Mark Fortner
Just to be clear, you're looking for a js library that has JavaFX-like
components, an event model, threading, graphics, animation and charting.
And runs in a browser. You're not looking to use fxml and js to build an
application, correct?

He mentioned JavaFX Script language, so I assume he wants to work with FX 
directly from Javascript.

Look at https://blogs.oracle.com/nashorn/entry/jjs_fx as an example

You’re spot on, Mark. I need to do a little 
lightweight-in-the-browser-without-the-JVM development, and as a long-time 
Swing/JavaFX developer, I don’t want my fingers/brain to bleed too much. :-)

The JavaScript world doesn’t seem as cut-and-dried as Java, iOS, Android 
development. I’m hoping there’s a popular and capable standard for people who 
come from the Java world.

Re: JavaScript library for JavaFX fans?

2014-12-16 Thread Mark Fortner
GWT is probably closest to what you're looking for. You write java and it
emits HTML and JavaScript. In recent years as JavaScript has been playing
catch up though, the popularity of gwt has been on the wane. Angularjs has
been gaining a lot of traction as well as Polymer.  But these more recent
frameworks are not java-like. I'm sure web developers would probably have
some better suggestions.
