Overview

Mark's Computer Build is a JavaFX application designed to manage computer builds. It interacts with a PostgreSQL database to perform CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete) on computer build records. The application allows users to add, edit, and remove computer builds, and view them in a table format.

Features

  • Add New Computer Build: Users can add new computer builds by filling out a form with details such as title, case type, motherboard, CPU, etc.
  • Edit Existing Computer Build: Users can edit details of an existing computer build.
  • Remove Computer Build: Users can delete computer builds from the database.
  • View Computer Builds: A table view displays all the computer builds stored in the database.
