【No. 0026】Break Away From Swing

Jan 13, 2015 23:00
Today, I considered whether or not to break away from Swing-based development.

Swing is a famous GUI widget toolkit for Java language.

Actually, I've used Swing to develop software for 5 years, and we've gone together like bacon and eggs, and I love her.

But development resources for Swing decreased significantly, and Oracle said "JavaFX will supersede Swing.".

So I learned JavaFX a little, but there were so many different points between JavaFX and Swing.

I was really sad.

It was not possible for me to determine parting with her today.

    Using 'her' is fine in a comical way. However, just be warned that it sounds rather uncomfortably strange for native English speakers.

    Punctuation (. , ! ?) always goes INSIDE the quotation marks. Not a big deal, as most native English speakers do not know this.

Amazing English. I was a bit strict, but only because you were so impressive.

Thank you so much for correcting me!! (^-^)
I'm delighted to receive your strict correction.

I didn't have the faintest idea of the law between punctuation and quotation marks.
Now, I felt more strength! (*´▽`*)
