    ScalaFX is a UI DSL written within the Scala Language that sits on top of JavaFX 2.x and and JavaFX 8.

    ScalaFX is a UI DSL written within the Scala Language that sits on top of JavaFX 2.x and and JavaFX 8. This means that every ScalaFX application is also a valid Scala application. By extension it supports full interoperability with Java and can run anywhere the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and JavaFX 2.0 or JavaFX 8 are supported.

    Package Structure

    ScalaFX package structure corresponds to JavaFX package structure, for instance scalafx.animation corresponds to javafx.animation.

    Example Usage

    A basic ScalaFX application is created creating an object that is an instance of JFXApp. Following Java FX theatre metaphor, it contains a stage that contains a scene. A stage roughly corresponds to a window in a typical UI environment. The scene holds UI content presented to the user. In the example below, the content is a pane with a single label component.

    package hello
    
    import scalafx.application.JFXApp
    import scalafx.application.JFXApp.PrimaryStage
    import scalafx.geometry.Insets
    import scalafx.scene.Scene
    import scalafx.scene.control.Label
    import scalafx.scene.layout.BorderPane
    
    object HelloWorld extends JFXApp {
      stage = new PrimaryStage {
        title = "Hello"
        scene = new Scene {
          root = new BorderPane {
            padding = Insets(25)
            center = new Label("Hello World")
          }
        }
      }
    }
