JavaFX supports CSS styling.
- specialist 6y agoRight you are. Wiki says since 1.2. It looks pretty good. I just spotted JavaFX Script. Huh. This is almost directionally correct. So of course it got killed. If you're curious what The Correct Answer™ is, imagine VRML-97 reimplemented using JavaFX Script like syntax. Its wiki has a link to the Curl (programming language). That syntax is also directionally correct. But is also missing most of VRML's semantics. There's also a link to the F3 programming language, aka "form fits function". Great slogan. Alas. Looks like a misunderstanding of Conal Elliot's Fran functional reactive programming language. Oh well. Thanks for the tip. JavaFX's Script w/ CSS was about 1/2 the solution. Maybe someday someone will loop back and harvest the good bits.
