JavaFX: Evolution of the Java Client

The talk will provide an introduction to GUI development with
JavaFX Script, a new object-oriented, declarative programming language
for the Java Platform. JavaFX Script is a statically-typed language,
with compile-time error reporting and has type inference, declarative
syntax, and automatic data binding with full support for 2-D graphics
and standard Swing components as well as declarative animation. You can
also import Java classes, create new Java objects, call their methods,
and implement Java interfaces. IDE plug-ins are available for both the
NetBeans IDE and Eclipse. Both plug-ins support as-you-type validation,
code completion, syntax highlighting, and hyperlink navigation (with
Control-mouseover).
