I'll second the book recommendation,
have the hacks sitting here on my desk and has been very useful so
far.
I've found that the easiest way for me to do UIs has been to write
helper functions that make the components and stitch them together
then return them inside hashmaps.
Then I write a bunc
I normally go to the swing tutorials on Sun's website when I have questions.
I'm writing a GUI in clojure. I'm using IntelliJ's (not great) FormDesigner.
Clojure is in some sense 'on top of' Java, since it uses the Java libs.
Writing a Swing GUI in Clojure hasn't been that much different than w

Taking a quick look in the files section of this group found this:

We use NetBeans' matisse designer for static form layout, and we hook
up the components' behaviour using clojure. This is pretty easy,
especially if you configure matisse to expose the components in a form
by creating them with 'public final' visibility, thereby making them a

If you really want to get into Swing I suggest taking a look at the
following book:

It's got tons of "I didn't knnow you could do that..." ideas
