JavaFX and Swing

Although Swing can redraw paintComponent () or Nimbus package-based L & F to rewrite a specific (custom UIDefaults map and then add it to the clientProperty of a specific control) or all JButton styles of the same type (using UIManager directly. put (<key>, <value>), but it is not directly and conveniently implemented by JavaFX.

In addition, JavaFX transfers all style management to a separate CSS file, so you only need to load different CCS skin files when switching skin.

In addition, JavaFX introduces the FXML interface descriptive language, and then Application Logic is implemented in Java Controller. In this way, the Application Interface Design and Application Logic Design are completely separated. The official Swing web page states that although some controls are designed with reference to the idea of separation of Model and View in MVC, most controls are indivisible.

JavaFX also added special effects on Text and various Node Effect, added Animation, and added support for a wider range of audio and video formats.
