How to setup the project?

Well, just clone the project and import the project into any of your IDE that supports Java (Netbeans, Eclipse, etc). Then make sure you have these installed on your machine:

• Javafx 14+
• Maven
• Launch4j

To build a release, if you're using window as your OS, you can simply execute the "deploy" script which will execute the commands needed for building a JAR file for the project. Then, use launch4j to generate the executable file.

Here's an example configuration XML file that you could refer during the creation of the executable.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<launch4jConfig>
  <dontWrapJar>false</dontWrapJar>
  <headerType>gui</headerType>
  <jar>link to the jar file</jar>
  <outfile>destination that you want to output the executable to</outfile>
