The example above by @Anvay needs a couple of tweaks to work. These are simple things to set on-track.

1. The ListViewController needs to be running on the JavaFX application thread.
2. You can only call the injected @FXML elements from the JavaFX initialize() method
3. Need to call setListView()
4. The stringSet in the example needs to be allocated with a new before calling setListView().

The ListViewController below works with these changes. I changed "stringSet" to a list, "stringList". The controller is pretty much the sample controller provided by Scene Builder 2

 public class ListViewController 
 {

     @FXML private   ResourceBundle      resources;

     @FXML private   URL                 location;

     @FXML private   ListView            listView;

     private         List        stringList     = new ArrayList<>(5);
     private         ObservableList      observableList = FXCollections.observableArrayList();

     public void setListView(){

         stringList.add("String 1");
         stringList.add("String 2");
         stringList.add("String 3");
         stringList.add("String 4");

         observableList.setAll(stringList);

         listView.setItems(observableList);

         listView.setCellFactory(
             new Callback, javafx.scene.control.ListCell>() {
                 @Override
                 public ListCell call(ListView listView) {
                     return new ListViewCell();
                 }
             });
     }

     @FXML
     void initialize() {
         assert listView != null : "fx:id=\"listView\" was not injected: check your FXML file 'CustomList.fxml'.";

         setListView();
     }

 }//ListViewController

The JavaFX platform needs to be started in the main() method from a JavaFX Application. Netbeans conviently provides most of this structure from the Maven JavaFX application template.

public class MainApp extends Application {

    @Override
    public void start(Stage stage) throws Exception {

        Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("/fxml/CustomList.fxml"));

        Scene scene = new Scene(root);
        scene.getStylesheets().add("/styles/Styles.css");

        stage.setTitle("CustomList");
        stage.setScene(scene);
        stage.show();
    }

    /**
     *  The main() method is ignored in correctly deployed JavaFX application.
     * 
     *  @param args the command line arguments
     **/
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        launch(args);
    }
}
