Read my experiences.  It simply did not work. see
http://mindprod.com/jgloss/javafx.html

It was not that long ago.  

Further it has quite limited browser support.

It is one more package the user has to install. I was unable to get
one developer who wanted a mirror copy of my website to install Java
to deliver it to him. He was terrified of it.

I am nervous of any new technology.  They are sent up like trial
balloons. If they don't catch on, they are abandoned.
