What is JavaFX?
JavaFX is a rich client platform for building cross-device applications and content. Designed to enable easy creation and deployment of rich internet applications (RIAs) with immersive media and content, the JavaFX platform ensures that RIAs look and behave consistently across diverse form factors and devices.
The JavaFX 1.1 platform release includes the following components:
JavaFX 1.1 SDK which includes the JavaFX compiler and runtime tools, graphics, media, web services, and rich text libraries to create RIAs for the desktop, browser and mobile platforms.
NetBeans IDE 6.5 for JavaFX 1.1 : Which provides a sophisticated integrated development environment for building, previewing, and debugging JavaFX applications. The editor features a drag-and-drop palette to quickly add JavaFX objects with transformations, effects and animation. This IDE also comes with its own set of Building Block samples and the JavaFX Mobile Emulator, a mobile phone simulator.
JavaFX 1.1 Production Suite : Is a suite of tools and plugins that enable designers to export graphical assets to JavaFX applications.

Develop rich applications that run consistently on the desktop, in web browsers, and on mobile devices.
Use the Update Center (Tools > Plugins) to update or install JavaFX 1.1 in an existing installation of NetBeans IDE 6.5. If you don't have the NetBeans IDE 6.5 installed, download the NetBeans IDE for JavaFX here.
JavaFX Projects :
The NetBeans IDE is the recommended tool to create, test, debug, and deploy JavaFX applications for the desktop, browser and mobile platforms. You have the option of deploying JavaFX projects as Java web start (JNLP), Java Applet, stand-alone applications, or in a mobile emulator. To get started quickly, select File > New Project from the main menu and have a look at our ready-to-run sample projects.
JavaFX Script Editor:
The JavaFX Script Editor supports syntax highlighting, source navigation, code completion, code folding, javadoc pop-ups, and error detection. You can use the Preview button to display the output of your visual code live.
The IDE contains code snippets that can be dragged and dropped into the editor: The Palette allows you to quickly add JavaFX objects with transformations, effects and animation to your project.
Full Mobile Support:
The JavaFX SDK 1.1 now supports JavaFX Mobile. The SDK comes with a JavaFX Mobile Emulator. JavaFX Mobile applications runs directly on the Java Micro Edition platform: Benefit from Java ME's ubiquity, security, and advanced APIs, including support for GPS, cameras, filesystem, networking, and Bluetooth.
If you already know Java ME, you can re-use existing code and skills. If you already know JavaFX, you can create mobile applications with the same familiar language, APIs, and tools. Everytime you write a JavaFX desktop application with the common profile, you are also writing for mobile devices.
JavaFX Profiling:
Use the integrated Profiler for standard CPU or memory profiling, or simple monitoring to optimize your JavaFX application's speed and memory usage. The options have been preset to default values by experts, but you can customize settings for a specific application.
