And https://github.com/edvin/tornadofx2 doesn't seem to be active, either...

yeah, i have been using raw javafx with kotlin recently, and basically copy-pasting chunks of the dsl part of tornado. id like to see just the dsl part extracted to a library, and ive briefly talked about it with @geepawhill but neither of us have the time

Kotlin is so good at expressing tree-shaped things, and windows on screens is the most tree-shaped thing there is. It'd be a fun project.

I started a project to try and take some of the gems from tornadofx and put them in a minimal library: https://github.com/maroc81/kitfx/tree/devel

[Marshall]

I'm using it in a couple of GUI apps, one I will open source when I find the time

[Marshall]

The philosophy behind this library is simple: do things as close to the JavaFX way as possible while also providing some conveniences

[wakingrufus]

Awesome! When i have some time ill look at it in depth, and see if I have anything that might be worth contributing

[Marshall]

that would be great!

Note that you should be looking at the devel branch and the README is not yet complete

[Marshall]

I've been adding features as needed so some things are not documented or not fully fleshed out
