I stumbled upon this problem. When I use a JFoenix component in the JavaFX sample project, it returns an error. All I did was simply insert the JFXButton in the SceneBuilder to test what this material library would look like. I did not change anything except add the JFXButton in the scene builder then the sample project wouldn't work anymore. What seems to be the problem here?

        FXMLLoader fxmlLoader = new FXMLLoader(HelloApplication.class.getResource("hello-view.fxml"));
        Scene scene = new Scene(fxmlLoader.load(), 320, 240);
        stage.setTitle("Hello!");
        stage.setScene(scene);

Your project setup seems to be broken. You are mixing artefacts from .m2 maven repository with an explicit SDK reference. See 17.0.2 vs 17.0.1.

In addition to the incorrect mixed Java version. You are using the wrong version of jfoenix.

Read the jfoenix documentation

Java 9+ needs a 9.x version of the library, not an 8.x version.

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.jfoenix</groupId>
    <artifactId>jfoenix</artifactId>
    <version>9.0.10</version>
</dependency>

Also, the jfoenix library may currently have issues with recent JavaFX versions, see:
