afterburner.fx 1.2 and igniter.fx 1.8 Are Released 📎

Version 1.2 of afterburner.fx was released and is available directly from maven central:


<dependency>
	<groupId>com.airhacks</groupId>
	<artifactId>afterburner.fx</artifactId>
	<version>1.2</version>
</dependency>

Main features are:

  1. Convention-based resource loading
  2. Improved unit test support (all presenters and models can be "forgotten" after the unit test)

The easiest way to start with afterburner.fx is using the scaffolder: https://github.com/AdamBien/igniter.fx

Just execute:


mvn archetype:generate -Dfilter=com.airhacks:igniter

from the command line and you will get a sample maven 3 project with CoC, DI, CSS, ResourceBundle and Scene Builder integration.

See afterburner.fx + igniter.fx in action.
