SceneBuilder is a UI design tool for JavaFX. It supports WYSIWYG drag-and-drop editing and produces FXML which can be used in JavaFX applications.

JavaFX Scene Builder is a visual layout tool that lets users quickly design JavaFX application user interfaces, without coding. Users can drag and drop UI components to a work area, modify their properties, apply style sheets, and the FXML code for the layout that they are creating is automatically generated in the background. The result is an FXML file that can then be combined with a Java project by binding the UI to the application’s logic.

The Scene Builder project was created using JavaFX by Oracle and it is open source within the OpenJFX project.

Oracle provided binaries, up until Scene Builder v 2.0, including only JavaFX features before the release of Java SE 8u40.

Gluon took over the binary releases distribution, and an up-to-date Scene Builder 8+ can be downloaded for every platform from here: https://gluonhq.com/products/scene-builder/

It includes the latest changes in JavaFX, and also recent improvements and bug fixes.

The open source project can be found here. Issues and feature requests can be filed here and pull requests here.

The Oracle legacy binaries still can be downloaded from here.
