What is the difference between java FX applet and java applet?

Question

Is java FX applet faster than the traditional java applet?

Answer 1

As far as, I know there is nothing called JavaFX Applet. We just run our JavaFX program in browser by using Applet. In other words, we can export our JavaFX program to the web as an Applet.

Furthermore, JavaFX and Applets are not mutually exclusive, please look here and here.

An SO thread found that might clear the confusion.
