Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reviewing how the repository supports its existing libgdx, Swing, Android, and TWL UI toolkits, then determine the scope of JavaFX 8 support. Done would require an agreed implementation plan and completed JavaFX support, but the issue does not define acceptance criteria.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

As Java 8 got released, the popularity of Swing has decreased and the popularity of JavaFX has increased. Are there any plans on supporting JavaFX 8 ? (If not, consider this a request to do so)
