There is this library called JavaFX-Blur, which can be found at https://github.com/kieferlam/JavaFX-Blur.
When trying to implement it in a project, this error occurred:

Exception running application sample.Main
Process finished with exit code 1
What I have done so far to set it up:
- downloaded the project as a zip file and unzipped it.
- added the two included .java files to the main package of my application.
- in IntelliJ I added the javafxblur.dll by adding it as jar/directory on the modules tab of the project structure of the Project Structure
- copied and pasted the demo code from the article on Github into my project.
I do not think the error is that the library file can not be found, because I get a different error, when I delete it.
