'How to compile java FX project maven

I'm trying to compile my Java FX in maven. I keep getting an error saying it can't find my java fx library. I followed this guide, but I got an error in my module-info file. This error was Package not found: tech.swiftpcb Even if I fixed this I feel this wouldn't resolve my issue because I'm still getting the same exact error but you never know this could be how I fix it.

What I've Tried


  • As I said before I tried this tutorial
  • I tried adding the path to my java fx lib in VM options --module-path /Users/danielcaminero/javafx-sdk-11.0.2/lib --add-modules javafx.swing,javafx.graphics,javafx.fxml,javafx.media,javafx.controls
  • I tried reloading the project
  • I also tried the following command mvn clean install
