| NetBeans IDE helps you quickly and efficiently develop Java clients, |
| for Java SE, using JavaFX and Swing, as well as Java ME and embedded |
| applications. |

| <h2>JavaFX</h2> |
| <p> JavaFX is the next step in the evolution of Java as a rich client platform. |
| It is designed to provide a lightweight, hardware-accelerated Java UI platform |
| for enterprise business applications. With JavaFX, developers can create |
| JavaFX applications completely in the Java programming language using |
| standard Java development tools. You can access native system capabilities, |
| or seamlessly connect to server-based middleware applications. </p> |
| <p>The IDE |
| provides JavaFX projects and integration with JavaFX Scene Builder, |
| together with editors, debuggers, and sample projects.</p> |

| <h2>Swing</h2> |
| <p>Design Swing GUIs by dragging and positioning GUI components |
| from a palette onto a canvas. The GUI builder automatically takes |
| care of the correct spacing and alignment. Click into JLabels, |
| JButtons, ButtonGroups, JTrees, JTextFields, ComboBoxes and edit |
| their properties directly in place.</p> |
| <p>You can use the GUI builder |
| to prototype GUIs right in front of customers.</p> |

| <p>Use the IDE to create, test, debug, and deploy applications that will |
| run on mobile phones, PDAs, set-top boxes, and embedded systems.</p> |
