Key Features
Swing interoperability
Existing Swing applications can be updated with JavaFX features, such as rich graphics media playback and embedded Web content. The SwingNode class, which enables you to embed Swing content into JavaFX applications
Built-in UI controls and CSS
Provides all the major UI controls that are required to develop a full-featured application
3D Graphics Features
API classes for Shape3D (Box, Cylinder, MeshView, and Sphere subclasses), SubScene, Material, PickResult, LightBase (AmbientLight and PointLight subclasses), and SceneAntialiasing

Key Features
Canvas API
Printing API
Rich Text Support
Multitouch Support for handheld devices
Enables drawing directly within an area of the JavaFX scene that consists of one graphical element (node).
The javafx.print package provides the public classes for the JavaFX Printing API.
Enhanced text support to JavaFX, including bi-directional text and complex text scripts, and multi- line, multi-style text in text nodes
Provides support for multitouch operations, based on the capabilities of the underlying platform.

What can we build with JavaFX?
You can build many types of applications
Typically, they are network-aware applications that are deployed across multiple platforms and display information in a high-performance modern user interface that features audio, video, graphics, and animation

JavaFX vs. Swing and
When Java was introduced, the GUI classes were bundled in a library known as the Abstract Windows Toolkit (AWT), which is prone to platform-specific bugs
Swing replaced the AWT user-interface components where components are painted directly on canvases using Java code; it is designed for developing desktop GUI applications
JavaFX replaced Swing and is a newer GUI platform that incorporates modern GUI technologies to enable you to develop rich GUI applications
Provides a multitouch support for touch-enabled devices such as tablets and smart phones, 2D, 3D, animation, and video and audio playback
Oracle no longer supports JavaFX, which is now OpenFX: https://openjfx.io/

Working on JavaFX apps with your favorite IDE
Download e(fx)clipse must be 3.5 or later, current version is 3.6
In Eclipse, select Help/Eclipse Marketplace, type fx and search
This will give you the options of creating a JavaFX project under File/New/Project
IntelliJ and Eclipse
Download JavaFX APIs https://gluonhq.com/products/javafx/
Download SceneBuilder to make the GUI programming easier
https://gluonhq.com/products/scene-builder/#download
IntelliJ Preferences->Languages and Frameworks-
>JavaFX->Path to SceneBuilder
Eclipse Preferences->JavaFX->SceneBuilder Executable, then right click the .fxml file and open with SceneBuilder
