Bringing SWT-style menu API to Swing for maximum productivity. Java SwingBuilder is an attempt to bring dynamic language-type productivity to Java Swing UI development by defining the layout/event wiring/binding in a separate YAML file and leaving the Java class to focus on pure business-side code. Inspired by Groovy SwingBuilder (the concept in general), Ruby on Rails (YAML is the new JSON/XML, but leaner) and GTK+ libGlade (for the idea of keeping layout and event wiring in a separate file). Uses MigLayout as the main layout manager. End goal of the project: to define max functionality with the least amount of code and maximize Swing developer productivity.
