True. I have somehow never liked how desktop applications written in Java turn out. I don't know whether it is because they don't use a native windowing toolkit

- gregschlom 14y agoMost Java apps nowadays use the native windowing toolkit. SWT for example (the major gui framework for Java) uses GTK on Linux, Cocoa on OSX and Win32 API on Windows
- pjmlp 14y agoUsually the blame is on the developers that don't make use of what Java offers. There used to be a blog series explaining developers how to take advantage of Swing to make nice UIs. The problem is that most don't care and use whatever is the default.
