Java Swing is a lightweight GUI (Graphical User Interface) toolkit used to build window-based applications in Java. It provides a rich set of components like buttons, labels, tables, text fields, and more, which can be customized and arranged using different layouts. Unlike AWT (Abstract Window Toolkit), Swing is platform-independent and offers more sophisticated functionality.
It uses a model-view-controller (MVC) architecture to separate the representation of data from user interaction, making it flexible and easier to maintain. Swing components are written entirely in Java, ensuring consistent behavior across platforms.
