Objective: For this project you will create a database backed application for a DVD rental business called DVD Rent ALot . You will use JavaFX to create the user interface and a database to hold information about your clients and DVDs.

Requirements :

The system is intended to be used by the staff of DVD Rent ALot to manage customer and inventory . You should be able to:

1) Add / edit, and delete customers

2) Add / edit, and delete DVDs

3) Assign DVDs to a customer, manage his rentals, process returns

There is no requirement on security of this application. There is no requirement of a middle tier (Business Layer ) for this application. Standard 2-Tier Architecture is expected (3 Tier architecture can be implemented for extra credit).

Design Requirements:

There should be a main screen that allows the user to choose whether they want to:

a) Manage clients

b) Manage DVDs

c) Rent/Return a DVD

In total that requires a minimum of 4 screens . You are using JavaFX for the UI . It is up to you whether youd like to write the UI completely in Java code only , or in a combination of Java Code + fxml UI screens , or whether you would like to use Scene Builder (highly recommended). You may use any technique and architecture for your project that you chose, and you can research your options and resources to maximize possible extra credit for this project. Specific Extra Credit will be awarded for the use of Scene Builder , good UI design , advanced databases (anything beyond the standard Derby DB), advanced JavaFX controls (e.g. pictures for DVD covers), and other advanced Java programming techniques that were not discussed in class.
