Trying my first JavaFX Program

So, I've looked up some websites on JavaFX as I wanted to quickly throw something nice together for drawing Geometry.

You can find my little tool on the GitHub1.

It works fine for what I needed. I wanted to be able to quickly show the difference between geometries.

The tool uses locationtech for geometry stuff, and javafx for display stuff.

It accepts WKT representations of geometry. Currently, these do not provide any coordinate systems, so you're unlucky there.

I did get the error:

Error: JavaFX runtime components are missing, and are required to run this application

But I changed my app to pull JavaFX from Maven Central and that seems to fixed the issues. JavaFX is no longer included in any JDK.
