JavaFX Script was a scripting language designed by Sun Microsystems as part of the JavaFX family of technologies on the Java Platform. It targeted rich internet applications, competing with Adobe Flex and Microsoft Silverlight, and aimed at rapid development of visually rich applications for desktop and mobile markets. The language was compiled, statically typed and declarative, with automatic data binding, mutation triggers and declarative animation, and it could use Java classes directly. It began life as F3, short for Form Follows Function, developed mainly by Chris Oliver, and was renamed and open sourced at JavaOne 2007. JavaFX 1.0 was released on December 4, 2008. On September 10, 2010 Oracle announced that the language would be discontinued while the JavaFX API stayed available to other languages for the Java Virtual Machine, and a successor language called Visage was announced later that month.
