Hm, CodenameOne is actually something I was planning on making use of at some point in the future. I’m (solo) working on a Swing app that I want to bring to mobile, so it seemed like a good fit to convert to it or write a branch that used it. Is it actually a dumpster fire to be wary of?

Not that I know of, it just seems like one of those frameworks that exists and there is some online chatter mentioning it but I have no idea who actually uses it. If it turns out to be good you should let people about it!

I'm biased but it's pretty good and actually has a community behind it.

Good to know, thanks! I’ll have to check out the links to the community when I get a chance too. Always good to know that a piece of tech you’d planned on using is healthy.

That's interesting to hear- where's the online community for Codename One located? I did find some Udemy courses for it, so there's that.

https://groups.google.com/g/codenameone-discussions https://stackoverflow.com/tags/codenameone and the github project. It isn't huge but it's been going on for nearly a decade with the same people.
