    Java Swing is the most commonly used GUI toolkit for Java. There are alternatives (JavaFX, AWT, SWT), but Swing is a very good starting point if you start devolping desktop applications with Java. The only thing I would consider is looking at alternative LayoutManagers like MigLayout. But you can easily begin with the standard ones. There is a great visual guide to start off with Java Swing and the various LayoutManagers.
