Building

Gradle can be used to build Markdown Writer FX from source code. Java 19 is required to run Gradle (and Markdown Writer FX).

The Gradle task assembleDist builds a distribution for the current platform (uses jpackage) and requires that Gradle is running on a JDK that includes JavaFX. E.g. BellSoft Liberica JDK (package 'Full JDK') or Azul Zulu JDK (package 'JDK FX').
