Selecting a FRAMEWORK

As we discussed the various programming languages in the last blog and we shortened it down to Java as it has many advantages over the traditional programming languages. Now it’s time to think about the GUI(i.e. Graphical User Interface) platform to be used.

We need to think it priorly because the GUI and code should be collaborated in terms to give the user a nice experience i.e. user-friendly without any disturbance issues. For the GUI we are using JAVA SWING. It is an API(Application Program Interface) of Oracle providing the GUI for the Java Programs.

WHY TO GO FOR JAVA SWING?

• The JAVA SWING is a core part of java foundation which was designed for developing a desktop application. It has shown its own impact and significance in the software development.

• The JAVA SWING supports java programming and its programming structure is analogous to the normal java language. Thus, the programming collaboration issue with GUI gets automatically resolved.

• The utmost beneficiary of using JAVA SWING is that it is platform independent.

• It has all light-weight components i.e. they don’t get stacked over each other at time loading.

Java Swing has great advantages as well in addition it has simple GUI components such as label to the complex tree and table.

The Basic Components of the Java Swing Architecture are listed below:
Like any other GUI implementations the Swing also has the basic components which are JCheckBox, Jslider, JRadioButton, JToggleButton, JTextArea, Jlabel, JTextField, Jbutton and many more.
This was all about our framework selection and why that framework was selected by us. In the next blog, we will see how the use of GUI enhances the visibility of the output and makes the application more user-friendly. Until then, HAPPY CODING!
