ClojureFX

[clojurefx "0.0.21-SNAPSHOT"]

Note: This is a complete rewrite, no code has been taken over from the old version on GitHub, and I'm taking a radically different approach.

A Clojure extension to make working with JavaFX simpler and more idiomatic. It allows you to naturally work with stock JavaFX components through use of extended protocols. Should a feature be missing you can easily extend ClojureFX in your own codebase or just fall back to standard JavaFX methods.

Features

This is in a very early state, so there isn't much yet. Take a look at the ClojureFX wiki.

• Declarative EDN GUI structure compilation
• FXML loading and scripting
• Turn a scene graph into a flat id-node-map and/or get nodes by id out of a scene graph

Declarative UI programming

(compile [VBox {:id "TopLevelVBox"
                :children [Label {:text "Hi!"}
                           Label {:text "I'm ClojureFX!"}
                           HBox {:id "HorizontalBox"
                                 :children [Button {:text "Alright."}]}]}])
