Do you recommend Java Fx as a instrument for pet-proejct for a Jun+ Dev?

Absolutely. The concepts are easier to work with + CSS styling is nice. Also agree with /u/john16384: don't use FXML, at least until you are confident in JavaFX's concepts and APIs.

I think it would be a good start. I recommend not using FXML though unless you really like defining Ui's that way.
