Hi,

The "Simple JavaFX Maven Archetype (Gluon)" template from the "New Projects->Java with Maven" does not create a resource sub-folder under the src subtree, so the developer can store required artifacts (i.e. jpg images,etc.) for the project in that folder. If the artifacts placed in the src directory with the main and the controller source code, the maven does not copy them to the target->classes, hence the developer needs to manually copy
The developer can put the resources where they belong for the maven build system when the developer initially adds them.
these artifacts src->main to the "target->classes" after each build, to avoid runtime errors.

In contrast, the "FXML JavaFX Maven Archetype (Gluon)" template always creates "Other Sources/src/main/resources/${project.package}" tree structure for the artifacts (i.e. fxml, css, images, etc.) and the maven copies them to the "target->classes->${package}" sub-folder.

If possible, it would be great if these two templates create a consistent tree structure.

The FXML project has resources, so it creates the directory and puts the resources there; the other project type does not does not have resources and so does not create the directory. You're suggesting creating empty directories, which SCM will get rid of.

Just create the directory when you need it. (I kind of agree with you, but there are so many valid directory structures for a project... The SCM issue is the clincher, empty directories do not stay around) If you don't know where the resources are supposed to go, then having some directory hanging around won't help anyway.
