Working with GUI's
GUI stands for "Graphical User
Interface"
A GUI, (often pronounced "GOO-ee"), is a means of
interacting with a computer which utilizes the
computer's graphical capabilities (such as input boxes,
buttons, windows, etc) in addition to text to engage the
user. While GUI's make it easier for a user to learn to
use a program, they are often more difficult for a
computer programmer to code. This is especially true for
beginning Java programmers.
The Java language has a complex Abstract Windowing
Toolkit (AWT) for developing GUIs which can be very
challenging for new programmers. BreezyGUI, on the other
hand, is an easy to use interface toolkit that allows
beginning programmer to work with the AWT without
dealing with the AWT's challenging complexities. New
programmers get to experience the "fun" of working with
GUI's and to experience the flavor of commercial
programs.
