About

This is a basic Gongfu tea timer application written in Java, with Maven. The following instructions were adapted by my peer CodeByAidan and are quite finnicky. You may need to just run the project in an IDE as javaFX can be a pain.

How to run the jar

To run, simply cd into this project directory and then cd into target/.

cd path/to/gongfuTeaTimer/
cd target/

Then, run the jar file.

java --module-path $PATH_TO_FX --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml -jar .\finalproject-1.0.jar

Replace $PATH_TO_FX with the path to your JavaFX installation.

  4. In system variables, find PATH, click on the Edit... button. In “Edit environment variable” dialog, click on the New button and add this %MAVEN_HOME%\bin\.
