Is the NetBeans Platform the best choice for a JavaFX only desktop application?

Hi Community,

I need to develop a JavaFX desktop application. Does it make any sense to build this application on top of the NetBeans Runtime Container to take advantage of the modular system or should I look at something else (like Griffon)?

I looked at:
https://java.net/projects/mfx
https://java.net/projects/efx

but they seem abandoned and with no clear documentation.

Ideally I would like to have the possibility of updating the application through an update center.

Thanks for your suggestions and comments!
