Learn Java FX OR Java Swing?

I’ve heard JavaFX is much better to learn but that Swing is also good and is built in. Which is better to learn as of right now? Can one do something better than the other or is FX just way better overall?

Do you know how Maven or Gradle work?

I'd generally recommend JavaFX but the setup is a bit annoying. If you start with a JavaFX project, use the recommend OpenJFX Maven setup with modules.
