Why did I use #JavaFX for an animation? Short answer, because JavaFX is awesome. Check out episode 2 of "Why'd they do it that way?" to hear the story and see the code. Happy coding everyone! youtu.be/j4HZeNwAWTk

Spent today fine-tuning DataCollie’s Query Result Grid—adding features like cell editing, column selection, multiple cell selection, and multi-format copy.

Crafting a polished product is still super time- and energy-consuming, even with the power of AI.

Love seeing the deep dive into UI refinement! Is JavaFX making these complex grids a breeze?

There's always a story behind why things get implemented a certain way. Here is a quick story about why I chose the UI elements I did for a part of my #JavaFX application. Also, the animation in the video was done using the JavaFX animation API. youtu.be/nquS77gNxc8

Solid abstraction is key to scaling UI. A reusable base turns complex glassmorphism into a plug-and-play workflow. Essential for keeping JavaFX apps modern and maintainable.

Milkman
Milkman: A Request/Response Workbench Learn More Download Craft and organize your requests to any kind of technology... Milkman is heavily inspired by Postman. But I got sick of all those electron-based applications that need ages and loads of memory to start up. Therefore i created a JavaFx-based workbench for crafting requests / responses. It is not limited to e.g. http (or more specifically rest) requests. Due to nearly everything being a plugin, other things are possible, like database-requests or GRPC, GraphQl, etc.

Flutter Better in Java
Codename One now builds Flutter apps from their Dart source, and the result starts faster and uses less memory than Flutter's own release build on Android, macOS, Windows and Linux, and ships less code on all six platforms we measured. This week also covers Kotlin Multiplatform, Swing and JavaFX, classic Android apps, a hardened bank template, a streaming template and phones without Google Play.
