5 What is JavaFX? 5

6 JavaFX is the evolution of the Java rich client platform, designed to address the needs of today s and tomorrow s customers. 6

7 Who is JavaFX for? 7

8 Target Developers Current Java Developers Former Java Developers Web Developers New Developers 8

9 What makes JavaFX special? 9

10 JavaFX defines itself as being a well designed, cross platform application development platform. It is fast. It is flexible. It delivers exceptional value to developers and end users. It is competitive. Most importantly, it leverages the massive existing Java eco system. Nobody else offers the complete package exceptional developer experience, user experience, cross platform development and massive ecosystem. 10

11 TIOBE Index Popularity of a Language 11

12 The Java Eco System Over 9 million Java developers Java is taught in universities around the globe Every major company uses Java 12

13 Value Proposition for Client Java Leverage existing Java investment Easier to find and train developers Reduce risk by reducing complexity 13

14 Why is JavaFX important? 14

15 JavaFX encourages companies to use Java on the client and the server. A strong and vibrant client platform retards the growth of competing technologies in enterprise server rooms. JavaFX provides a compelling end-to-end Java solution for enterprises and competes well with other technologies. 15

16 How about some examples? 16

21 Programming Languages Java is our primary programming language Release Java APIs for all of JavaFX Expose JavaFX Binding, Sequences as Java APIs Embrace all JVM languages JRuby, Jython, Scala, Groovy, JavaScript JavaFX Script compiler will not be updated to work with JavaFX 2.0 APIs Existing JavaFX Script based applications will continue to run 21

22 APIs and Programming Model Continuation from JavaFX 1.X product line We are quite pleased with the scene graph and event model Most APIs will simply be ported directly to Java Some APIs will be revisited (e.g. layout) Existing Controls will all be ported Embrace more web technology Update JavaFX CSS to include more from CSS 3 (eventually to be fully spec compliant) * Use WAI-ARIA for accessibility API * Make HTML available for rich text in all Text nodes 22

23 API Design Hire the best We re actively hiring, visit the booth, see me for more info We have a very good team, good environment, good development methodology, building a great platform! API Usability Studies Inflict our APIs on unsuspecting volunteers Observe their reactions Release Early Access, Beta builds to partners Join the JavaFX Partner Program for access to builds Build blueprints, samples, demos in parallel Nothing vets an API like building applications 23

24 Workflows Developer oriented workflow Developers write application, produce UI Use a RAD tool to produce forms apps quickly Import graphics from Illustrator & Photoshop Designers style UI using CSS Designer oriented workflow Designer produces graphics using professional tools Developers produce modules (e.g. access web services) Designer aggregates graphics & code modules & scripts it together using JavaScript or another dynamic language 24

25 Web Integration Embed HTML in JavaFX WebView node in the scene graph is embedded browser Allow all Text nodes to have HTML content Seamless DOM integration Embed JavaFX in HTML Using traditional plugin technology Seamless DOM integration Adapt to use HTML 5 local storage, browser history, etc Adopt more web standard CSS, Accessibility, HTML for rich text, 25

26 Graphics 2D and 3D scene graph Hardware accelerated pipeline DirectX 9 on Windows XP, Windows Vista DirectX 11 on Windows 7 OpenGL on Mac, Linux, Embedded Software (Java2D) when necessary Embed in Swing c.f. Java3D, JOGL Allows Swing applications to add JavaFX scenes, charts, media, and controls High Definition Media 26

27 Controls Simple, Rich, Useful High customizable via CSS Visually appealing Complete out-of-the-box Work well with data binding Work well with tools 27

28 Performance Small & fast Measure static & dynamic footprint, and reduce both Measure startup time & reduce it Measure FPS, CPU, GPU for many graphics scenarios Aggressively refactor making things small and fast Measure, measure, measure Engineers write performance tests Measured on multiple platforms & configurations continuously Write competitive performance benchmarks for everything we find. You write a blog with a benchmark, we try to compete. 28

29 Architecture 29

30 Basic Architecture Java & JavaFX APIs Developers program to the JavaFX APIs. Operating system / hardware specific implementations of the platform. Most of this code is reusable between operating systems, but portions of it must be ported. Graphics Pipeline Toolkit Windowing HotSpot / Operating System Target the OS and Hotspot. Plugin based usage also includes talking to a Browser. 30

31 Major JavaFX Scene Graph APIs Full set of rich UI controls for a productive out of the box experience. Scenegraph provides convenient programming model for graphical and business applications Scenegraph has built-in support for drag & drop Controls Charts Scene Graph Drag & Drop Animations Customizable, easy to use charts. Super flexible timeline based animations, animating along a path, and simple transitions Support for mouse, keyboard, touch, and input method events Input Events Paints Colors, linear and radial gradients, texture paints Blurs, reflections, drop shadows, glows, inner shadows, and more Effects Transforms Full 2D and 3D transforms such as rotations, translations, and scaling 31

32 Major JavaFX APIs Local Storage Local storage for storing user data offline, both for desktop and web apps Simple yet powerful threading libraries built on a single reusable Task API Tasks (threading) Data Services Web services, database services, file services, etc 32

33 Prism Toolkit Next-generation hardware accelerated graphics Support OpenGL ES 2, DirectX 9, DirectX 11 DirectX used on Windows due to superiority of drivers Falls back to Java2D for software rendering as needed Full 3D supported for OpenGL and DirectX Some 3D such as transforms supported with software pipe Uses next-generation Glass library for windowing 33
