Thank you so much, i`ve watched ~100 pages about this question. but you`re the one who made the guide that really helped me. Thanks.

I have watched about 100 videos all showing complicated workarounds that never ended up working and this one did!

Dude, you deserve more people on your channel. This is life-saving content. I've looked everywhere on the internet, and you were the only one that had a solution. Also, maybe you know how to use the labels in JavaFX, for example. I have a label that is 1920 by 1080, and I have like 10 lines of lyrics. I want to be able to either scale up or down font size based on text amount. Do you know how to do that?

Hello, I have an error when opening the build artifact, I get JNI error. Does anybody know what to do?

Which Java runtime you use? i used jre1.8 and it's not running my jar file.

Very good tutorial, but I am still experiencing one problem. The JAR only launches my initial login screen, when I input the correct credentials it never launches the next screen like it is supposed to. It only ever stays on just the initial screen. How can I create a JAR that has my entire application and can switch between the multiple scenes? Thank you
