JavaFX 2.0 With Alternative Languages - Groovy, Clojure, Scala, Fantom, and Visage

JavaFX Script is going away, but the JavaFX Platform is getting a new face with pure Java APIs. In this session, you will see how you can leverage the new JavaFX 2.0 APIs from a host of different JVM languages, including JRuby, Clojure, Groovy, and Scala.



Visage Android Hands-on Lab

Visage is the successor to the JavaFX Script Language, a domain-specific language for writing UIs. It excels at rapid application design and can be used on any platform that supports Java. In this lab you will have an opportunity to write Visage applications that deploy to and run on Android mobile devices. No prior experience with Android or Visage development is required. To get the full experience out of this talk, please bring a laptop or share one with a friend in the audience. Mobile devices are optional (emulators will be provided).
