This project was developed as an end project for a Java-2 course. It is composed of a graphical interface built with JavaFX with a small scene manager, and uses JSON files.

It is a game based on the weakest link, where 4 players have to answer questions (Round-Robin selection) on various topics, with an increasing difficulty, until there is only one player left.

Download and install the JDK 14. This version is mandatory It may be an auto-download in your IDE parameters (in SDK options). Otherwise, you can download Open JDK 14, store it in a known folder, and add it in the list of SDK in your IDE.

If you are using a personal installation of Gradle, verify that the version is at least 6.3.

This section is only for those who don't want to use Gradle

Download JavaFX 14. It is the library used to handle the GUI.

Download the org.json library. It is used to easily store information in files when serialization is not possible.

First thing to do is to clone the repository:

git clone [email protected]:nerstak/L3-Java2.git

If asked, select the JDK 14.

First, place libraries in a known folder (lib is a good one), and add them to your Java project (for JavaFX, you have to select the inner lib folder). This manipulation mays depends on your development environment.

For JavaFX, you will need to go further and follow the tutorial, depending on your IDE (check the section Non-modular from IDE corresponding to yours, from step 2). Be careful when adding the path in the VM options, it needs to be absolute.

Verify that the version of the JVM used by Gradle is the JDK 14 you downloaded.

Run the application, using the main function located in src/Project/Main.java as a target.

Build the application with the task build.build.

Run the application with the task application.run.
