Scene Builder

Scene Builder provides a visual, drag‑and‑drop interface for constructing JavaFX user interfaces. It lets developers place and configure controls from the JavaFX core library, as well as components from community projects and Gluon extensions such as Gluon Mobile, Gluon Desktop, and Gluon CloudLink. The tool generates separate FXML layout files, keeping UI design distinct from application logic and allowing team members to work on different layers independently.

The application runs on macOS, Windows, and Linux, with installers available for Intel and Apple Silicon Macs, as well as RPM, DEB, and JAR packages. It is released under the BSD license and is maintained by Gluon, which also offers commercial support, training, and consultancy for enterprise users.

Designed for rapid application development, Scene Builder enables quick iteration on UI layouts while integrating seamlessly with the broader JavaFX ecosystem, making it suitable for developers who need a visual design workflow alongside code‑based development.
