[FIXED] Standalone JavaFX application

Issue

Is it possible to create a standalone, executable JAR that uses JavaFX for it's GUI?

I want to create an application and send it to a friend that has only the JRE 6 installed.

Please note, that the solution has to be compatible with either Maven or Gradle.

Solution

JavaFX has support for creating standalone native packages.
