I actually did with my company and anyway it was a bad decision.
JavaFX and swing customization is really not easy and not well documented. JavaFX uses custom XML which make no sense to be honest when you want to do nice design.
And it requires custom CSS too. Additionally, their design are bad(I mean their Java API). We spend a whole year making an app with it, at the end we decided move away from it, like the rest of the java community if fact that do not really support desktop applications anymore. |

I don't see why the custom XML should be a problem. Definitely you are not supposed to edit the .fxml files by hand, especially when you have apps like Scene Builder that allow you to design everything from a GUI.

That's true only for a few JavaFX-specific properties. The CSS syntax doesn't change very much. Also, it's not a surprising feature: QT, the C++ GUI framework, also uses custom CSS.
