Create Application Class

The following listing shows the most basic setup required to launch a Gantt chart user interface.

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

import com.flexganttfx.view.GanttChart;

public class MyFirstGanttChart extends Application {

    @Override
    public void start(Stage stage) throws Exception {

        // <- Our Gantt chart
        GanttChart<?> gantt = new GanttChart<>();

        Scene scene = new Scene(gantt);

        stage.setScene(scene);
        stage.centerOnScreen();
        stage.sizeToScene();
        stage.show();   
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Application.launch(args);
    }
}
