Common GUI libraries include: AWT - part of Java SE since version 1.0, replaced by Swing in Java 1.2 (Swing still uses some AWT) Swing - part of Java SE since version 1.2, somewhat replaced by JavaFX in Oracle Java 8 JavaFX - part of Oracle Java since version 8 GWT - Eclipse project, only available for some platforms > Are there any good tutorials, YouTube videos, or books on these subjects. AWT - some but the a lot may have been lost due to age Swing - lots JavaFX - some (note that you need JavaFX 2.x or newer as JavaFX 1.x was very different) GWT - very little Arne
