      Description

      One of the reviewers of our 2024 BOSC abstract tried to build IGB but could not do it because they did not realize that they needed to use a JDK that includes JavaFX.

      We need to make sure that the Readme makes this clear. In addition to stating that developers need to build IGB using JDK21 (our preferred JDK) we also need to tell them that the JDK they use needs to include JavaFX.

      We could also recommend the JDK that we are using internally for building and deploying IGB.

      I'm putting this in the current sprint so that we can get this done before I give the talk at the 2024 BOSC meeting in two weeks.
