Hello, I was wondering if there's something sort of like a style guide for building GUIs using TornadoFX? I know what I want to do, and even have some idea of how to do it, but are there things I should be leaning towards like dependency injection, or fragment use, etc? The best example I can find is in the TornadoFX documentation: "but using  inject()  delegates is the most idiomatic means to perform dependency injection and has the advantage of lazy loading." That's great, now I know to use inject() over find() where possible.

Are there other idiomatic things about TornadoFX that I need to know besides what's in the documentation, and if so, do you have any suggestions as to where I should look for this information?

TBH TornadoFX seems abit dead. I'd go for JavaFX instead, where you have more documentation and also ready libraries for Metro UI, etc...

in what way ? I seriously would want to know , since I'm embarking on using TornadoFX instead of using Groovy to do JavaFX , I also see that on their TornadoFX2 repo , they have activity since 7 hours ago, are you suggesting the use of JavaFX directly from Kotlin ? or from Java ? thanks
