A modern, Material Design UI for Java Swing
Skins JComponents to have a Material Design Look and Feel. Most components are responsive, with hover effects, and click effects (no ripple unfortunately). Fonts included.
Screenshot in action below (chessboard not included 😛):

Go to the releases (or just the target/classes folder in the repo) and download the latest version of material-ui-swing.jar. The OSGi version is available under target. Add it to your project's build path (e.g. for IntelliJ this might help), and you're all set!
import mdlaf.*;
import mdlaf.animation.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class MaterialUISwingDemo {
public static void main (String[] args) {
try {
UIManager.setLookAndFeel (new MaterialLookAndFeel ());
}
catch (UnsupportedLookAndFeelException e) {
e.printStackTrace ();
}
JFrame frame = new JFrame ("Material Design UI for Swing by atharva washimkar");
frame.setMinimumSize (new Dimension (600, 400));
JButton button = new JButton ("PRESS ME");
button.setMaximumSize (new Dimension (200, 200));
JPanel content = new JPanel ();
content.add (button);
frame.add (content, BorderLayout.CENTER);
// on hover, button will change to a light gray
MaterialUIMovement.add (button, MaterialColors.GRAY_100);
frame.pack ();
frame.setVisible (true);
}
}Check src/main/java/MaterialUISwingDemo.java for a slightly longer example of how to use this library (and an explanation of what everything means/does).
For a real-world example of usage, see here.
This look and feel implements theming to change the color scheme of the Material UI. Currently this isn't completely stable, but if you want to implement a theme for this look and feel, you can extend and implement the abstract class AbstractMaterialTheme (look at mdlaf.themes.MaterialLiteTheme for an example).
To change the theme, use the below code:
if (UIManager.getLookAndFeel() instanceof MaterialLookAndFeel){
MaterialLookAndFeel.changeTheme(new MaterialDarkTheme());
}
A working example is also found here.
This theming system was implemented by @vincenzopalazzo
