# Introduction

**cryptoGX** is a java based software for en- / decrypting texts or files and secure delete files.
It was designed to be controlled with a GUI, but can also be used from the command line.

Because the GUI uses javaFX, java version from 1.8.0_40 to 10.* with javaFX support is required.
Alternatively you can compile the [source code](#https://github.com/blueShard-dev/cryptoGX/archive/master.zip) with higher
java version and include [javaFX](#https://openjfx.io/) manually
