DemoFX WebFX demo

About: DemoFX WebFX demo

TARGET AUDIENCE

This app has been published for developers following the WebFX project, and is part of the project demos.





FOR NEW AUDIENCE

WebFX is a free, open-source cross-platform solution that can target 7 platforms (Web, Android, iOS, macOS, Linux, Windows & embed such as Raspberry Pi) from a single Java code base.
Underlying technologies: OpenJFX, Gluon & GWT.

For instance, you can visit the web version of this same app at https://demofx.webfx.dev

Whatever the platform, the application source code is exactly the same (see the LINKS section below to access the source code of this demo).
The application is written in Java and uses the JavaFX API to build the user interface.
The Gluon toolchain (built on top of GraalVM) is used to compile the application Java code into a native app for all platforms except the Web (so this includes this Android version).
GWT is used to compile the Web version. It transpiles the Java code into an optimised JavaScript code.
As a result, all executables in all platforms offer optimized performances.


ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR DEMO

This demo is an example of animation created with the JavaFX canvas API.
It's achieved by chaining a series of canvas effects powered by the DemoFX library (credits: Chris Newland).
There is no multi-threading, so this is the most demanding WebFX demo for the UI thread.
