What is that button labeled "Scene Builder"?

In the editor window, when we are editing the fxml file, at the bottom of the pane, next to the button labeled "Text"?

I going to the grocery store, and I was wondering how much ice I should get?

Well this is obviously 'Drag and Drop' Scene builder, like you can have when developing any GUI apps, like in IOS or Android.

Suggest to use

because it is better. So if you need/want, you can dig into it.

I guess in this course, the point was to teach us how to do things "from code".

You can add stuff in Android and IOS also using just code, but rarely someone uses it that way, I think.
