It’s been a few days since I was impacted by the #Oracle layoff. I wanted to acknowledge the #Java DevRel team that’s still there, as well as other folks/companies continuing to also engage with the Java community. Please give it a read: www.linkedin.com/posts/sharat...

„If and when it exists, ownership looks like an individual who deeply gives a shit, making a call without waiting for group-consensus. That individual will be right sometimes, and they’ll be wrong other times, and they’ll own it.“ buff.ly/L1Atgrj #leadership #collaboration

Last weekend I worked on #FlexGanttFX (flexganttfx.com) improvements and support for AtlantaFX theming / styling. A new showcase app with new demos / samples is also in the works. #javafx #java #ui #ux

Here is the new #JavaFX #LinksOfTheWeek, published on www.jfx-central.com/links. Thanks to Kevin Rusforth @apidia.net @gluonhq.com Robert van Burg @frankdelporte.be @azulsystems.bsky.social #Lottie4J @dlemmermann.bsky.social Lee Wyatt Happy reading, and have a lovely #Java weekend!

Copilot is now updating the libraries catalogue for @jfxcentral.com for me. "Find the most popular JavaFX libraries on GitHub and summarise the readme and download the images and integrate into libraries.json". That's what AI was made for :-) #JavaFX #java #ui #ux

We finally moved to #JavaFX 25 for @jfxcentral.com and this now allows us to use StageStyle.EXTENDED. Sounds like a minor thing but allows apps to look much more native than before. No more custom resizing borders and behaviour. #javafx #ui #ux #java

I created a website dedicated to #GemsFX, my primary open source project for #JavaFX custom controls. You can find it at gemsfx.dlsc.com. #ui #ux #java #javafx

Java keeps getting faster… without us changing much. The JIT improvements from 21 → 26 alone are significant (Netflix saw up to 3.5x in cases). Brian Goetz said: “Thinking is hard.” Feels true. Code gets easier. Performance gets “free.” Thinking is the work. Before you optimize—try Java 26.

JavaFX 26 and JavaFX 25 downloads are available here: www.oracle.com/java/technol... JavaFX 26 is for the latest release of the Java SE Platform. And JavaFX 25 is for the latest Long-Term Support (LTS) release of the Java SE Platform. docs.oracle.com/en/java/java...

Excited to speak at #WasmCon Europe next Monday about bringing #WebAssembly to the JVM ecosystem with @graalvm.org. I’ll demo GraalWasm in a Spring Boot app and show how GraalVM can compile JVM apps to Wasm for browser, mobile, and cloud. Join us! Details: sched.co/2DY2u

JavaFX is back — now part of the Java Verified Portfolio. Proper support again across Java versions. Big for desktop apps. Modern Java can do way more than people think — even AI and full stack with fewer moving parts. Also: great hallway track, Brian Goetz, Stuart Marks, and Duke 🙂

#JavaOne is coming! Are you? If in person, check out dev.java/community/ja... for a user-friendly schedule. And if you see me on site, flag me down - I want to chat with you. If you stay home, join us on stream: dev.java/community/ja... TL;DR: Tue, Wed, Thu, starting at 1500 UTC.

IMO the quality of #Java has improved *a lot* between 2015 and 2025 -- excellent work of the heroes at #OpenJDK. As for the #community, I hope we can get more diverse. One of the great things in the early days was "Java Everywhere". Think about education, science, data/embedded,... #innovation

Thanks to the efforts of several open source developers we at @jfxcentral.com can now display syntax-highlighted code in markdown files via @mdfx by @floriankirmaier.bsky.social #javafx #java #ui #ux Available hopefully by the end of the week.

I updated my website at dlsc.com with Github Copilot. Basically one day of work. If I had a design I could have done it in an hour, but I was playing around with things. @brunoborges.bsky.social

Did some more evaluation of GitHub Copilot CLI today and built a nice launcher app for my #GemsFX open source project. The productivity I get out of this surpassed all my expectations. #javafx #java #ui #ux @brunoborges.bsky.social

Version 3.10.0 of #GemsFX is out now and available on Maven Central. It contains a new feature for the InfoCenterPane allowing you to specify where to show notifications (upper left, upper right, etc...). #javafx #java #ui #ux

Had an extensive conversation with Marco at @jetbrains.com about the future of @graalvm.org, the benefits of ahead-of-time compilation, and whether AI is going to take over compiler development 😉.

“Quand ne PAS utiliser @graalvm.org ?” 🤔 C’est la question qu’on pose à @alina-yurenko.bsky.social (Oracle) à chaque conférence 😅 La réponse dans ce court extrait, tiré de sa conférence “Bring the Action: Using GraalVM in Production” : www.youtube.com/watch?v=pACF...

Release 3.4.2 of #PDFViewFX is out now. The visual properties of the view can now be styled via CSS and not just via API. #javafx #java #ui #ux github.com/dlsc-softwar...

Maintaining LTS versions for a project like JavaFX is complex and resource-intensive. It requires a fair amount of the Gluon resources, but it is extremely important to keep JavaFX secure, modern and relevant. You can support us at gluonhq.com/lts #java #javafx #opensource

We celebrated 30 years of Java in 2025 and are delighted by the continuous evolution of the technology with new features, while the Java platform remains backward compatible. It's worthwhile to observe the innovations at jdk.java.net All the best for next year as Java enters its fourth decade.

We have added a new tool called "FxTools" to the @jfxcentral.com website at www.jfx-central.com/tools/fxtools It is a toolkit that provides image processing, color picking, SVG path extraction, font preview, and more. Author is @leewyatt.bsky.social @frankdelporte.be

The online #JavaFX "Ensemble" demos are pretty cool. Wished more library developers would leverage it. www.jfx-ensemble.com @floriankirmaier.bsky.social #java #ui #ux
