My basic java painting program allows the user to draw different colors to the screen. Using the arrow keys, the user can change colors, and the new color will be shown on the top left of the screen. The program uses JFrame as a base to paint on, as well as several event listeners to track mouse and key presses. This program is rather rudimentary, as it was built as an introduction project for myself into Java. For anyone trying to learn Java, I recommend spending several weeks learning the basic Java program layout and rules before attempting a more complex program.
{Describe the tools that you used to develop the software}
{Describe the programming language that you used and any libraries.}
{Make a list of things that you need to fix, improve, and add in the future.}
- Allow users to draw while dragging the mouse for more fluid painting
- Allow the users to toggle shapes/tools to draw with
- A real user interface
