This is my set of utility functions for Java 8 and JavaFX development

They break down into

• animation: a digested set of tools to build timelines for common animations
• gui: static Backgrounds, Effects, Cursors and animators to make borderpanes use drawers, visibility animatoars
• icon: support for fontAwesome icons
• model: a database layer with maps and Data Abstraction Objects (DAO)
• task: database utilities in offthread tasks
• util: generally public static functions to facilitate file io, urls, parsing, hashing, node traversal
• validation: libraries from JideFX to interface with Apache validation tools
