Mini-project 2: Basic Graphical User Interface
Instructions
The purpose of this mini-project is to give you practice with building and manipulating Java GUIs using the IntelliJ GUI builder.
Create a module called MP2. In MP2, create a GUI form (right click on the MP2 module in the Packages tool window to the left, select "New" → "GUI Form"). Make a GUI for one of the following applications:
- a Pig Latin translator (translate phrases to and from Pig Latin)
- a Fahrenheit to Celsius and vise versa converter
- a US Standard to Metric converter for several units
- your own creation!
Regardless of which one you pick, your GUI should have the following features:
- an exit or quit button
- at least two buttons other than the exit button
- at least one input or output box
Submission
Create a JAR file for MP2. See this page for the rubric. See the Canvas page to upload your submission.
