Hello,
I am using fxlauncher in my application. Is there any way to create exe and debian package using fxlauncher api.

Yes, that's literally what it does - package your app and wrap it in an executable. Please see one of the example projects (maven or gradle). You will need to run the installer step once on each target platform to get a binary.

Yes, there is a generate-installer step in the example projects which builds installers. On windows, it has a prerequisite on a third party installer framework, which it will prompt you for during installation.

Fxlauncher uses javapackager to create a deb package if you include -native deb, like it is described in the docs:
