I suggest you take Ernie's suggestion to get started (use the fxml archtype). You can build and run your application in NB. The first thing to do after creating the project is edit the POM to update to newer versions of Maven artifacts. Then, when you wish to run your application outside NB you will have to install JavaFX and set the module path per the document you linked in your post. I think I even saw a post from Geertjan a few weeks ago where he used jlink (from within NB) to build a fat jar that included all the FX modules to run your app. When jpackager hits the JDK perhaps deployments of JavaFX will get easier -- it's already worth the additional effort. <TODO>I need to find Geertjan's jlink demo again and do some testing.</TODO>
