Cryptii JavaFX project

Inspiration

I've been to several Capture-The-Flag competitions and I wanted to make something I could easily use from my Windows machine instead of having to look up all the time. Sometimes, the online cryptography platforms don't work as well as I hoped they would. I've also always wanted to mess with a Java GUI framework and with some research, it looked like JavaFx could do the job, so I started to learn it when this hackathon started.

What it does

TBD

How I built it

I built it using Java and JavaFX

Challenges I ran into

Not knowing much about JavaFX, so having to learn a lot was a pain, but very worth it in the end.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Making something cool out of what I learned. Possibly useful

What I learned

I learned key features of JavaFX and how to provide a GUI for a java program. I learned how to add menus, organization, and CSS to style my GUI app.

What's next for Cryptii JavaFX project

Maybe I'll use it myself in future Capture-The-Flag competitions and if I run into something I want to add to it, I'll do it.
