Java ME (J2ME) GUI Library

It is well known that the native MIDP GUI elements are decidedly ugly. In order to create decent looking user interfaces for MIDP applications, developers must either write their own custom low level GUI components or use those from an existing library. The process of writing these components from scratch is a time consuming and expensive process and needs to take device fragmentation and variable screen sizes into account from the very beginning. Being Java developers ourselves we found the existing GUI libraries insufficient for our interface requirements and have therefore created our own GUI library from the ground up.

Our GUI library is intended for use on most Java ME capable devices and we have worked hard to ensure that various device idiosyncrasies like screen size, keyboard mappings and input modes have all been taken into account. The library has been designed to function much like existing AWT or Swing classes so Java developers will feel very comfortable using the API programmatically. On final release we plan to have full support for both the Netbeans and Eclipse IDE's so that developers can work with our code within their preferred environment.
