what are the Ways to create a gui to install a java app

I have a java web application . Currently the application is installed in a cli mode [on windows/linux /solaris] by running sh or cmd scripts. I would like to create a GUI for the App installation so that user can edit info in gui for the installation.

Any pointers/Best practices for developing gui would be helpful.

thank you

Check out Swing. This is the GUI framework that comes with Java.

http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/

public class Swing extends JFrame{
  public static void main(String args[]){
    new Swing();
  }
  public Swing(){
    JLabel label = new JLabel("Hello world!");
    add(label);
    setSize(100,100);
    setVisible(true);
  }
}
