'''Common profile.''' JavaFX is based on the concept of a “Common profile” that is intended to span across all devices supported by JavaFX. This approach makes it possible for developers to use common programming model while building an application targeted for both desktop and mobile devices and to share much of the code, graphics assets and content between desktop and mobile versions.

To address the need for tuning applications for the needs of specific class of devices, the JavaFX 1.1 platform includes API'sAPIs that are desktop or mobile-specific. For example JavaFX Desktop profile includes [[Swing (Java)|Swing]] and advanced visual effects.

'''Drag-to-Install.''' From the point of view of the end user “Drag-to-Install” allows them to drag a JavaFX widget or application residing in a website within the browser window and drop it onto their desktop. The application will not lose its state or context even after the browser is closed. Application can also be re-launched by clicking on a shortcut that gets automatically created on the user's desktop.
