Ajax Versus JavaFX Technology
TS-5587


Presenter: Dion Almaer, Ajaxian, Inc.; Ben Galbraith, Mozilla


The JavaFX platform and Ajax are both stories of redemption; Ajax redeemed tired old Web interfaces, whereas the JavaFX platform promises to redeem applets -- and breathe new life into Java technology on the desktop. Although they are at the edges, both of these platforms have specific use cases that suit them entirely well, and there is indeed a large middle set of use cases where either of these platforms can be used to create compelling user interfaces. Ben Galbraith and Dion Almaer, who host this session, leverage both their expertise in Java desktop technologies as well as their experience with Ajax to compare and contrast the two platforms.
