I spent a weekend theming my own NetBeans Platform app using FlatLAF, and it was a quite pleasant experience. (There's probably a million lines of Swing code in NetBeans... "transitioning" to JavaFX would be akin to deloping an entirely new IDE. Even IntelliJ is all Swing.) -- Eirik -----Original Message----- From: Eric Bresie <ebre...@gmail.com> Sent: Tuesday, December 7, 2021 7:58 AM To: Netbeans Developer List <dev@netbeans.apache.org> Subject: Re: Re: New theme for netbeans, team member wanted (JavaFX) I know this is a grander, not a short term thing, and a little out of scope here but would transition the UI of Netbeans from Swing to JavaFX based with its own (css) theme paradigm be of value?
