Hi.
First all, thanks to talk about java application in 2020 in this podcast.
I’m writing this comment because I think that in this podcast we don’t talk about all applications of the Java Swing framework.
For example, inside the article “The 25 greatest Java apps ever written” there is a Swing application called JMars developer by Arizona State University. This application import a Material Style with an open-source library called material-ui-swing.
I think that this two software need more focus because the work with the Java Swing framework is very big.
If you are interested to see how the software looks like, I will append now the link.
