The #webfx Fetch API allows you to query web services (text, json, etc...). Fully cross-platform => your code will run on all supported platforms (desktops, servers, mobiles & browser) like illustrated by this #javafx chess game running in the browser (congrats @orango_mango).

@WebFXProject @orango_mango Biggest blocker for client code these days is unability to oush or force uodates like with websites. In your view whats the best approach in client side code force users to upgrade or use the Web version in this case?

@WebFXProject @orango_mango I would love to leverage the benefits of javaFX but it's a hard sell in enterprise when we need to push a critical fix...its a shame we have to use sub optimal tech for boring practical reasons :) Being able to FORCE latest version on people even with low rights is critical.

@SystemsInCode @WebFXProject @orango_mango Hey @SystemsInCode, you can use Conveyor with its "aggressive updates" mode which will do what you want here (web style forced synchronous update on launch).
