See Change Log
Gradle can be used to build BookDesigner from source code. Java 19 is required to run Gradle (and BookDesigner).
The Gradle task assembleDist builds a distribution for the current platform
(uses jpackage) and requires that Gradle is running on a JDK that includes
JavaFX. E.g. BellSoft Liberica JDK (package 'Full JDK') or Azul Zulu JDK
(package 'JDK FX').
