JavaFX seems like a viable alternative for RIA development, but you need to write, build, and run some scripts to know whether it's for you. In this article (the first in a short series), Jeff Friesen introduces you to the JavaFX Preview SDK. Get installation instructions for JavaFX with NetBeans 6.1, create a Hello World script, and explore scalable vector graphics conversion and rendering using Project Nile. Level: Beginner.
It is remarkable to realize that one year ago we could only explore the JavaFX Script language and various JavaFX APIs via an interpreter and an interactive application called JavaFX Pad. Since that time, Sun Microsystems has evolved the language, has created a compiler to improve runtime performance, and has released the JavaFX Preview SDK for JavaFX programming.

Hi Bichi, thanks for the reply.
Well, I just given you the updates on JavaFX. I see that you work on programming languages including Java. This will help you to understand when you get a chance to work with Java and JavaFX.
Thanks - Rajeev.
