Java Foundation Classes (JFC)

The Java Foundation Classes (JFC) are a set of ready-to-use tools and components that developers use to create graphical user interfaces (GUIs) in Java applications. Think of JFC as a toolkit that provides buttons, windows, menus, and other visual elements, simplifying the process of building user-friendly software. It includes libraries like Swing and AWT, which help developers design and manage the appearance and interaction of applications across different devices and operating systems, ensuring consistency and ease of development in Java-based visual programs.
