How to make windows for IntelliJ plugins

I would like to create an IntelliJ plugin that has a window, and that window needs to have a textbox and some other controls, including a settings button which brings up a panel in settings. Unfortunately, I do not know how to create such a plugin.

Unfortunately, the IntelliJ documentation is... well... inadequate when it comes to making such a plugin. The IntelliJ documentation (and several examples I found on the Internet so far) only tells how to create menu items and context menus. I can find no examples of creating windows or other controls.

There has to be some documentation, though, because there are several plugins made by third parties that do, indeed, display windows, controls, and perform various behaviors.

Can someone provide some example code (maybe some snippets) for an IntelliJ plugin that actually has windows and controls, and that handles events other than menu click events? Or at least point me to a tutorial or an example of creating such a plugin?
