I'm using Swing at work, and the first question coming to my mind is : Is there an editor like Eclipse's VisualEditor to build the UI ?

There's no editor provided by Griffon at this moment. However I'm pretty sure IntelliJ IDEA has something to offer on this regard. There are a few alternatives though:
  • You can design the UI using NetBeans' Matisse, then import it using the generate-view-script command target
  • You may use AbeilleForms Designer instead, there's a Griffon plugin that supports it.
  • You may prototype the UI using SwingPad, a Grifofn application that let's you run the UI DSL as a regular Groovy script.


  • Cheers,
    Andres
