JFX-Central is a community hub and resource portal dedicated entirely to the JavaFX ecosystem. Rather than being a library or framework itself, it serves as a curated directory of everything JavaFX: libraries, tools, frameworks, tutorials, blog posts, videos, real-world showcases, and open-source projects. The platform is built using JavaFX and deployed to the web via JPro, making the application itself a living demonstration of what JavaFX can achieve across desktop, web, and mobile targets.

The site organises content into categorised sections covering UI controls, charting libraries, media players, editors, and more, helping developers discover the rich ecosystem that has grown around JavaFX. It tracks releases, links to documentation, and highlights community content such as conference talks and screencasts. Maintained by Dirk Lemmermann and contributors from the JavaFX community, JFX-Central acts as the go-to reference for anyone looking to evaluate or extend their JavaFX toolbox. Whether you are a newcomer trying to understand the landscape or an experienced developer seeking a specific component library, JFX-Central provides a well-organised starting point for exploring the breadth of JavaFX resources available today.
