    Default External Packages

    Hi,

    In order to provide external functionality from external packages to your Java programs, you would need to download those external packages to your computer. If I had a program implemented with external packages such as javaFX, do all other computers that may run this program need to also have the external packages installed on those computers?

    Thanks

    All needed classes must be present and on the classpath when the code is executed.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Create a package that should interface between the external package and your application. And provide all the functionality your program requires through the package you created. You package should serve as an interface between the external package and your application.
