Java desktop links of the week, April 18

A bit quiet this week, but here are the top links of the past week. Enjoy! :-)

Swing

• Gerrit Grunwald has posted about bilinear color interpolation, and how to create the 'colour picker' effect in Java 2D.
• Dotan Nahum has blogged about rewriting a simple Swing application using JRuby. He provides links to the code repo's of the source code before and after.

Griffon

• Mario has blogged about creating a Twitter client using Griffon. At present it is only a very simple project right now, but the source code is available for you to browse if you're interested in learning more.

JavaFX

• Andrew Krizhanovsky emailed me about his wikokit project, which is a visual interface to the parsed English Wiktionary and Russian Wiktionary databases. It is built using JavaFX 1.x, and the source code is available for people to explore.

Miscellaneous

• Josh Marinacci blogged about 'Amino and Leonardo: Next Steps', in light of the pending arrival of Josh 2.0.

That's that for us this week. Keep up the always great work folks, and I'll see you in a weeks time :-)
