JavaFX is back — now part of the Java Verified Portfolio. Proper support again across Java versions. Big for desktop apps. Modern Java can do way more than people think — even AI and full stack with fewer moving parts. Also: great hallway track, Brian Goetz, Stuart Marks, and Duke 🙂

JavaFX is missing a native Switch control — every major UI framework has one except JavaFX. I've implemented a SwitchButton with full theme support. Hope to contribute to OpenJFX. Thanks @dlemmermann.bsky.social for his help! github.com/leewyatt/Swi... #JavaFX
Maintaining LTS versions for a project like JavaFX is complex and resource-intensive. It requires a fair amount of the Gluon resources, but it is extremely important to keep JavaFX secure, modern and relevant. You can support us at gluonhq.com/lts #java #javafx #opensource

The January 26 CPU releases for JavaFX are available. Download the latest JavaFX SDKs with security fixes at gluonhq.com/products/jav... or get them from maven central. You'll find the latest released, JavaFX 25.0.2 and the Gluon JavaFX LTS releases 17.0.18 and 21.0.10
