Where do JavaFX applications run?
JavaFX is fully integrated with the Java Runtime and takes advantage of the performance and ubiquity of Sun’s Java Runtime Environment that is installed on literally billions of devices worldwide. Hence, JavaFX applications will run on any desktop, browser, mobile device or any other connected device that runs the Java Runtime Environment. JavaFX applications can run on any Windows or Mac OS X desktop running Java 1.5 or higher. The JavaFX platform includes a mobile emulator to enable developers to create and test JavaFX Mobile applications directly on their desktop using Windows. The JavaFX runtime for mobile devices is available to Operators and Mobile Device Manufacturers as of February 2009.
