Wow, that makes it really powerful engineering tool. Best of all, that it can work on any platform (Windows, Linux, MacOS). JVM-targeted tools seem perfect for this task, but require additional installation of JRE

I usually wrap my apps in FXLauncher so they have native stubs and automatic updates on all platforms 🙂

Oh, I tried FXLauncher, but could not understand, how it does work, so deployed the project with just two Maven plugins (maven-jar-plugin to add manifest + maven-dependency-plugin to add all jars into lib/ directory)

Then you're missing out on automatic updates at least 🙂 I know it's not the most intuitive tool to get started with, but if you start with one of the templates (available for gradle and maven) you should get going pretty easily.
