JavaFX 26 Today
summary
JavaFX 26 ships today with concrete changes: an optional Metal pipeline on macOS (off by default for 26, on by default in early JavaFX 27), a prototype headless window toolkit for server-side rendering and testing, and CSS updates including media queries and piecewise linear easing functions. The incubating RichTextArea now supports IMEs, CSS styling and pasting from MS Word in the demo, plus a graphical tab-stop editor; a Direct3D12 early access pipeline for Windows is available on jdk.java.net.
