JavaFX Script is a compiled, declarative scripting language that runs on
the desktop, in the web browser and on mobile devices. It's tightly
couple with Java technology for core application functionality, heavy
lifting and libraries. It makes special effects and GUI transitions
accessible to people who aren't graphic artists or know the intricacies
of overriding Swing painters and working with the Java 2D API affine
transformations. JavaFX Script is a perfect user-interface compliment
for Java applications

In this session, we'll look at some powerful language idioms that make
special effects, interface transitions and vector graphics accessible to
programmers who have not chosen to specialize in advanced Swing and Java
2D. We will also see how to build visually rich user interface such as
image transitions, fade-ins, fade-outs, morphing using Java FX Script.
