Create JFrame + JPanel + button: SWING/GUI in Java TUTORIAL/HELP NO visual editor

Watch in HD for clearer quality!

This video helps to explain Swing in Java. In this video, I explain how to create the frame and create labels and buttons in a panel inside the frame. Learn how to create the frame, panel and objects without a visual editor such as NetBeans!

Remember: Create the frame then create the panel. Place the panel in the frame. Then, every object (label, button, etc) goes inside the panel.

I used Eclipse to make this video. Download Eclipse here:


You can use any other software to program in Java such as Dr. Java or Netbeans.

In the next video, I will explain action listeners and I will show you how to arrange the objects onto the frame properly like you want.

Soon, I will get into making shapes and doing 2-D graphics in Java. Hopefully, even get into some 3-D graphics, if i can. Stay tuned

why can't all swing tutorials be this clear? It makes so much more sense now.

I am going to school for Information Technology and Networking with a focus on web development, and sometimes books just don't get through to the reader (like myself), so videos like this helps to bring information together, and also saves so much time from having to go back over already read information.

I love your video and you explain things very well, keep of the good work.

One of the greatest books to read if this is too advanced for ppl are the Deitel and Deitel Books. I believe they have set a precedence using the best standards in how to begin learning an Object Oriented Programming Language. I used to program in C++ and still prefer it sometimes, but Java is a powerful high level programming language as well that has become the language of choice for most Software Engineers.

@andrepowns Make sure you're running it as a Java Application.

i noticed that even on commenting the command :

;

the window can be closed with the help of the 'X' button at the the top right corner without any trouble...why did you add this statement?

@awesumkid99

It would allow you to add only one label whichever is your latest. Thus your method would only help if there is one label you are using.

Cool. One point, no North Americans call the ( ) brackets, we would always say "parentheses". We use the word brackets to mean "square brackets" like for array indices: [ ]. Cool tutorial though.

Just a shout out to people using NetBeans. You have to add the swing application framework library to your project.
