Hello friends I missed you all!

Hope you are all well rested and energized for a great 2009 full of promising developments and awesome new technology. Although our newest baby JavaFX is but a month old, we are hearing awesome feedback and seeing cool platforms being written in the Script language.

I want to point your attention to WidgetFX which is a desktop widget platform written in the new language. It can run widgets written in either JavaFX Script or Java and takes advantage of the latest features in the Java Consumer JRE (Java SE 6 update 10).

Here are some cool features:

  • open-source
  • support for multiple platforms (Vista, Linus, Mac OS)
  • rich library of graphics
  • one-click installation and automatic updates

To get more info you can visit the project site here.
