Editing Swing (Java) (section)

====Extensible====
Swing is a highly modular-based architecture, which allows for the "plugging" of various custom implementations of specified framework interfaces: Users can provide their own custom implementation(s) of these components to override the default implementations using Java's inheritance mechanism via {{Javadoc|module=java.desktop|package=javax.swing|class=LookAndFeel|text=LookAndFeel|monotype=y}}.

Swing is a '''component-based framework''', whose components are all ultimately derived from the {{Javadoc|module=java.desktop|package=javax.swing|class=JComponent|text=JComponent|monotype=y}} class. Swing objects asynchronously fire events, have bound properties, and respond to a documented set of methods specific to the component. Swing components are [[JavaBeans]] components, compliant with the [https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/javabeans-spec.html JavaBeans specification].
