FX Experience Has Gone Read-Only
I've been maintaining FX Experience for a really long time now, and I love hearing from people who enjoy my weekly links roundup. One thing I've noticed recently is that maintaining two sites (FX Experience and JonathanGiles.net) takes more time than ideal, and splits the audience up. Therefore, FX Experience will become read-only for new blog posts, but weekly posts will continue to be published on JonathanGiles.net. If you follow @FXExperience on Twitter, I suggest you also follow @JonathanGiles. This is not the end - just a consolidation of my online presence to make my life a little easier!
tl;dr: Follow me on Twitter and check for the latest news on JonathanGiles.net.

Hello everyone! Apologies for the radio silence for so long – I’ve received many emails from people worried I had disappeared into a black hole 🙂 It’s just been super hectic around here – Christmas, new years, a lot of travel – but now things are settling down and I can get back into the groove of posting these links again.
- Gerrit Grunwald continues to do amazing things with JavaFX charts. He has posts on a “Florence Nightingale inspired Coxcomb Chart“, Nested Bar Charts, and Stream Charts.
- Glazed Lists 1.11.0 has been released.
- ScraM has been updated: “Kids and adults alike can make games of all kinds in ScraM. With a drag-and-drop designer (built with JavaFX), ScraM makes coding fun and
easy. Get it all
here, and watch videos
here.”
- Dmitry Kan has announced a new release of Luke, a “toolbox for analyzing and maintaining your Lucene / Solr / Elasticsearch index on low level.”

It is crazy that we are already in December. Soon it’ll be the festive season, and I hope everyone takes the time to relax and unwind. This week there are only a few links to note, so enjoy 🙂
- Gerrit Grunwald has worked on Sankey charts for his Friday Fun Component. They look very nice 🙂
- Chris Seikatsu has announced Dyn2d, “a 2d rendering package for JavaFX. It’s more than just a game engine. With Dyn2d you can turn your JavaFX application into an interactive experience.”
- Thomas Nield has announced nullable binding feature for RxJavaFX.
- To indulge me, I announced this week that following my leaving of Oracle, I am now happy to announce that my new role is at Microsoft, as a senior cloud developer advocate working to grow Java on the Azure cloud.

A relatively quiet week in desktop Java land, but definitely no less interesting! 🙂
