Build Griffon app for Windows and Linux

Question

I am going to build desktop application for Windows and Linux both. I tried to use Swing with Java, but it's a bit too rough. Right now I have focused on the Griffon framework.

Is it possible (I bet it is) to build application for Windows (exe file) and Linux (other executable file) ? How can I do it ?

Answer 1

Yes, you can build an app targeting several platforms. In terms of deployment, i.e, creating platform specific installers/launchers have a look at the Installer plugin
