Cross-platform JavaFX library for notifications

NotiFX

Cross-platform JavaFX library for notifications

Under Construction - Not yet for public use

Platforms to be supported

• Windows 10
• MacOS (current version, past versions would be nice too)
• Linux
  • GNOME
  • KDE
  • XFCE
  • others???

TODO

• Investigate native TrayIcon implementation for system tray icons on each platform
• Investigate native notifications
  • Windows (Action Center style) notifications
  • MacOS popup notifications
  • Linux
• Incorporate basic modal/non-modal dialogs
• Notifications that appear then fade away.

Goals

• NotiFX should be written in pure JavaFX or native code (C/C++)
• NotiFX should not use AWT or Swing
• NotiFX API should follow JavaFX convention where possible
• NotiFX should be modular, and able to be run with the latest OpenJDK release
• NotiFX should not have any external dependencies apart from test scope software

Development

• Minor fixes/implementation can be committed directly
• Major fixes or improvements should have a pull request or issue created
• Code style should be uniform, Sun Java style or Google's Java style guidelines should be followed unless any rule would make the code more difficult to understand
