JavaFX
In this special eWEEK video, I take a look at the new JavaFX RIA platform from Sun.

While one can easily make the argument that Sun’s Java was one of the first examples of a rich internet application platform, Sun hasn’t been a big player in the recent rise of RIAs.

But with the release of JavaFX 1.0, Sun hopes to change that. JavaFX takes advantage of many of the benefits of Java while adding the ease of development and deployment common to most RIAs.

In this video I walk through some of the key components and features of JavaFX. Click here to watch my video walkthrough of JavaFX.
