Tally counter (WebFX demo)

TARGET AUDIENCE

This app has been published for developers following the WebFX project, and is part of the project demos.

FOR NEW AUDIENCE

WebFX is a free, open-source cross-platform solution that can target 7 platforms (Web, Android, iOS, macOS, Linux, Windows & embed such as Raspberry Pi) from a single Java code base.

Underlying technologies: OpenJFX, Gluon & GWT.

For instance, you can visit the web version of this same app at https://tallycounter.webfx.dev

Whatever the platform, the application source code is exactly the same (see the LINKS section below to access the source code of this demo).

The application is written in Java and uses the JavaFX API to build the user interface.

The Gluon toolchain (built on top of GraalVM) is used to compile the application Java code into a native app for all platforms except the Web (so this includes this Android version).

GWT is used to compile the Web version. It transpiles the Java code into an optimised JavaScript code.

As a result, all executables in all platforms offer optimized performances.

ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR DEMO

This demo shows how you can use the JavaFX controls API to create your own custom controls, or - like here - reuse an existing JavaFX controls library.

In this demo, the JavaFX Odometer library (credits: Gerrit Grunwald aka Hansolo) has been used to render the counter digits.
