I am pretty capable when it comes creating GUIS in Java using Swing, however I can’t help feeling that what I am creating is a little too simple. I am getting annoyed when trying to make quick changes.
If I had more free time I would love to spend time becoming more familar with Swing however at the moment that is out of the question.
So my question for the community is, do you have any thoughts on an alternative way for me to make more attractive GUIs?
This is a very good thread discussing this. Swing is a very capable framework/library, and you can do many things with it and certainly attractive GUIs.
If you like, you can use a GUI designer, such as the one that comes with Netbeans.
If you don’t want to stay with Swing, there is SWT, but, that adds your bloat to your code since it isn’t standard, and it won’t necessarily make your app look better.
