Welcome to Seedlet!

Seedlet is an easy-to-embed source-code-embedded Java GUI for programs whose GUI requirements are simple. It is designed to provide a fast, flexible and simple GUI without a lot of work developing it.

Seedlet is AWT-based and, besides the GUI, contains a lot of machinery 'under the hood' to simplify application development. It was written to be used (but not limited to) three ways:

  1. A development platform for independently-deployed APIs. Include Seedlet code while developing and then, when the application is ready, simply delete the Seedlet code or instruct your compiler to ignore it.
  2. A simple GUI front-end for command-line or web-based APIs. Write a Seedlet to use the desired API and make sure the code can "see" it.
  3. A GUI framework for standalone applications. This is the most efficient use of Seedlet. It makes such things as CardLayouts, JDBC and JSR-223 scripting simple and painless to include.

To this end, Seedlet includes a LOT of equipment not necessarily GUI-related. Besides the main class, it has ancillary tools for XML, JDBC, file processing and logging. GUI-wise, it provides pre-made panels for handling scripting, macros, alternate ClassLoaders, JDBC and templating. Best of all, it's FREE! Free as in speech and free as in pizza. Just download it, snap it on and your GUI is handled.
