JavaFX with Gradle, Eclipse and, Scene Builder on OpenJDK11: Project Setup

The web is a preferred choice for software due to the ubiquity and accessibility of browsers but, exceptions exist necessitating the need for a quality desktop app platform such as the need to lockdown data to a few geographically close computers or desire to restrict internet connectivity from a particular app. Surprisingly, this can be common for high-tech fields like science and medicine which rely on the exceptional Java platform and JavaFX framework for quality desktop software.

When paired with Scene Builder the experience translates into efficient prototyping and full on design of UIs.
