i'm a grade 12 java student and our last assignment is to create an app. our teacher gave us the resources needed and i chose to create MP3 tagging software. what the app does is simply show and change ID3 tags of MP3 files/other types as well with a simple interface (using JavaFX). i don't want people to code my program for me, i just want help with a starting place. i don't know where to properly start. my main problem is where can i find all the right things for javaFX for example. how may i find a method to create a drop-down menu. Or how does "choosing a directory" work because if i choose a "directory" for my files what exactly does the program do with the "directory"? thanks.

    If this is your last assignment, shouldn't you already know the basics from previous assignments? – Kayaman Jan 07 '15 at 07:50

  • As id3 library, perhaps http://www.jthink.net/jaudiotagger/ is useful to you. Regarding JavaFX UI basics... well, I'm sure there are a ton of tutorials on the web. – Hendrik Jan 07 '15 at 10:04

First start by learning JavaFX. Take a look at the book "Pro JavaFX 8". Its a great resource to learn JavaFX. The first six chapters will get you in good shape for developing JavaFX apps.

how may i find a method to create a drop-down menu? You will find most of the available controls in Chapters 5 and 6 of the book. Including a ComboxBox similar to a dropDown Menu.

For working with directories you will need to use the FileChooser in JavaFX. But till then learn the basics of the framework.
