A JavaFX Application Framework for Scala User.

This project replaces sapphire-core and sapphire-extension.

It provides a solid base for Rapid Application Development with JavaFX and Scala and is a good place for start development.

Examples of using ScalaFX and JFoenix are provided.

Also there is an example of using it with a CDI Framework (Deltaspike).

If you like to try an easy way to setup a desktop app with scala, give it a try.

I started JavaFX GUI develpment with the project sapphire-core, because for every application almost the same pattern were needed.

As my projects need better datalist support and more stuff, i created another project named sapphire-extension and called it experimental.

With the time i wanted to have all code, demos and showcase to be at one place. This was the start of sapphire-javafx.

All data-handling was refactored out in another project called sapphire-data, because this date and expression handling is also useful in non JavaFX projects.

This project replaces sapphire-core and sapphire-extension.

At this time i decided to add a clear namespace prefix: SFX (for Sapphire JavaFX).

Documentation under https://sfxcode.github.io/sapphire-javafx

A showcase can be found in the showcase folder inside this project.

The showcase show some of the common pattern used by this project.

Migration from sapphire-core (and sapphire-extension) by replace:

sapphire.core (sapphire.extension)

with

sapphire.javafx

This should make all problems in packages work again.

Giter8 template: sapphire-sbt.

Build and tested against Scala 2.12/2.13 and JDK 11/12

Java UI Application Framework as replacement for Swing.

Sapphire depends on OpenJFX 12

Sapphire use Apache Deltaspike as CDI Abstraction Layer (1.9.x).

The default implementation depends on Apache OpenWebBeans (2.0.x).

Expressions are resolved by EL 3 Tomcat Expression Language.

A DSL for JavaFX written in Scala.

ScalaFX plays very nice on top of sapphire-core applications.

sapphire-java makes rapid UI Development easy. Multiple pre-build pattern help to fulfill most data centric parts. Demo applications and showcase available as blueprints.
