Description of  JAVA 15: MORE ABOUT JAVAFX

This book is the fifteenth in a series of books on software development and the book is a natural continuation of the previous book on programming of GUI applications with JavaFX. The book focuses primarily on JavaFX properties and data bindings, but also treats the basic architecture of a JavaFX application as Model-View-Presenter. Other important topics are advanced controls like TableView and TreeView and also charts and 3D graphics are mentioned. The book requires knowledge of JavaFX corresponding to what is dealt with in the book Java 14. After reading this book and solving the corresponding exercises and tasks, you should be able to write completed GUI applications using JavaFX and use JavaFX as a alternative to Swing. As the title says this series of books deals with software development, and the goal is to teach the reader how to develop applications in Java. It can be learned by reading about the subject and by studying complete sample programs, but most importantly by yourself to do it and write your own programs from scratch. Therefore, an important part of the books is exercises and problems, where the reader has to write programs that correspond to the substance being treated in the books. All books in the series is built around the same skeleton and will consist of text and examples and exercises and problems that are placed in the text where they naturally belongs. The difference between exercises and problems is that the exercises largely deals with repetitions of the substance that is presented in the text, and furthermore it is relatively accurately described what to do. Problems are in turn more loosely described, and are typically a little bigger and there is rarely any clear best solution. These are books to be read from start to finish, but the many code examples, including exercises and problems plays a central role, and it is important that the reader predict in detail studying the code to the many examples and also solves the exercises and problems or possibly just studying the recommended solutions. All books ends with one or two larger sample programs, which focus primarily is on process and an explanation of how the program is written. On the other hand appears the code only to a limited extent if at all and the reader should instead study the finished program code perhaps while testing the program.
