JavaFX install & setup (IntelliJ) 💡

Setting up JavaFX for IntelliJ is not that bad...

1. (00:20:24) Download JavaFX SDK
2. (01:19:16) Create a new project
3. (02:06:14) Add SDK library
4. (02:43:18) Add VM options

For newer versions of IntelliJ (today 5.12.2022), after creating project in intelij, just run it, than go to run/ edit configuration, than in 'Build and run' section press 'Modify options' and select from 'Java' section the ' Add VM option' . Then everything is as in the video says

GUYS IN LATES VERSIONS(21) THERE'S NO NEED FOR THE ADD VM. u can run it without adding path to vm. Spent hours figuring it out. Now trying to be some help :)

[lucaspont]

it always takes me 5 times as long to set up the configurations for things like this than to learn the things i actually want to learn, appreciate the video.

If it helps -> IntelliJ Version 2020.3. - I have to add SDK in Libraries and Modules/Dependencies as well.
about VM path is located Run/ AddConfigurations/ Modify Options/ Add VM Options.
Good Luck 😎

Im running IntelliJ 2023 and I didnt have to do anything to make this work compared to Eclipse's 10 steps. Guess they improved the IDE :)

if you can't find vm options enabled enable it by clicking on the "modify options " beside build and run and then check a mark on add vm options

Thank you for your tutorial, was stuck in my studies with just creating the first Java Fx doc. You saved me from a lot of frustration, these things get complex and you don't know where to look anymore, thank you! <3

[VietNguyen-vjsu]

Thanks for the video!
the setup worked for me. I used IntelliJ 2022. I did run into problem because I included those additional libraries such as BootstrapFX, ControlsFX, FormsFX, ... but once I didn't tick those boxes. it ran!

Unfortunately the new version of intellij is more complicated in terms of creating a new javaFX project. It has lots of advanced options. I have no clue what should I select. It asks for Group, Artifact and dependancies. Also it forces me to choose either Maven or Gradle. I am so confused.

javafx is the messiest framework/libary to set up i've ever encountered

[bakedlorelei]

omg lifesaver! pls do continue this series T_T

[badxxdevilxx]

I couldn't run a JavaFX but after watching your video I figured out how to make it work.

Great tut
But, after adding the VM option, I get this error :
Error occurred during initialization of boot layer
Module com.example.demo not found
Please help me over come this issue

[templetonpeck]

I can't figure out how to do this in the newest version of Intellij. I followed the instructions to perfectly. It did not work. I tried for about 2 hours.

Thanks for this tutorial. I decided to switch IDE from Eclipse to IntelliJ because I find IntelliJ more intuitive. This video is of great help to setup

[shiken_]

bro hug, 2 hours of pain and you got me fixed

[leeortiz]

This saved me, he gives step by step instructions that can be followed by a first grader THANKS!

[yuvrajkorotana]

Thanks precise and to the point just what I wanted, professors should give this videos link instead of pdf instructions.
