Thank you, I spent the night trying to do this and couldn't. Halfway through the video it worked, thank you very much.

I followed every step up to 8:13, where you added the .jar files into the Classpath. I noticed that my folders and files under the javafx were different.
I tried loading the ones that made sense but the imports were not recognized by the java file.

The mentioned files are the following:
- org-netbeans-modules-javafx2-editor.jar,
-
-
-
The folders I have are: config, modules (where the mentioned files are) and update_tracking - instead of bin, legal and lib.

I recently started learning java and I'm at loss here...

Someone knows how to install hibernate in these versions and in this 2021 the reason the hibernate plugin that existed in the plugin library was lost with the page where it was hosted, so netbeans plugins 8.2

Hi Ken... I am trying to create an executable from a JavaFX program. I am a beginner, but, as you know, in order to make the NetBeans Build we have to disable "build JAR after compiling". So, how to build a .jar file from a JavaFX/Scene builder project? Thanks

Hello Ken, thank you for you explaining this.
I tried to do the same with Mac but didn’t work, still have issues with Javafx. I added the jar files and when I run the project it says, Module not found
Any suggestions, thanks

Can u please provide also how to make a deployment of Application from JavaFX Project cause it seems there's an error when building jar file in Javafx. Clean and Build Error. it occurs only in JDK 16 and Netbeans IDE 12.0 +. thanks!

FXMain doesn't show up whenever I go to the deployment, what should I do?

After all this trick to make a single file run a button, I just want to cry and go back to my C# Classes. I have spend two days to run JavaFX on NetBeans and still no success, this is insanely complicated.
