This book introduces JavaFX as a frontend technology and utilizes Kotlin instead of Java for coding program artifacts to boost code expressiveness and maintainability. Author Peter Sp舩h employs a hands-on approach, providing practical examples and code to demonstrate each concept. Mid-level Java programming knowledge and a basic understanding of Kotlin are the only prerequisites; experience with JavaFX and frontend coding is not essential.\u003c\/p\u003e JavaFX is a modern frontend programming toolkit equipped with containers, menus, buttons, sliders, text fields, and various other controls necessary for communicating with your users, all of which are covered here. Despite its name, JavaFX applications can be coded with programming languages other than Java. The central requirement is that any language targeting JavaFX compiles to artifacts runnable on a Java Virtual Machine. Over the course of this book, you'll learn firsthand why Kotlin, with its elegant and concise syntax, is a perfect match.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfter completing \u003ci\u003eFrontend Development With JavaFX and Kotlin\u003c\/i\u003e, you will be able to build frontends of mid-to-high level complexity, depending on present Java skills, and use Kotlin as a language for addressing GUI programming needs and accessing the JavaFX API.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat You Will Learn\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreate a JavaFX + Kotlin development pipeline for Gradle, Eclipse and IntelliJ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse JavaFX scenes, stages, and nodes\/controls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaster JavaFX event handling, effects, and animation using Kotlin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderstand the JavaFX Concurrency Framework and Kotlin Coroutines for JavaFX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWho This Book Is For\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Low- to mid-level Java or Kotlin developers with or without JavaFX experience who wish to learn how to build JavaFX applications with Kotlin.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Sp舩h\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1484297164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781484297162\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Apress\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/09\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 138\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.61lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.33d","brand":"Peter Sp舩h","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45477819121919,"sku":"9781484297162","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bcffafa7-23d8-43a5-9dc6-c6d86d4a34af.jpg?v=1715932029","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/frontend-development-with-javafx-and-peter-spth-9781484297162","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
