A step-by-step guide for installing Azul Zulu JDK 11 and Gluon JavaFX 11 on older Raspberry Pi boards (Zero, Model B/B+) that use an ARMv6 processor. The default OpenJDK 11 in Raspberry Pi OS only supports ARMv7+, so Azul's Zulu JDK is the only free ARMv6-compatible option. The guide covers downloading and extracting the Zulu JDK, configuring update-alternatives to switch the active Java runtime, installing the Gluon JavaFX 11 SDK for ARMv6, and running a minimal JavaFX GUI application using Maven.
