Java framework from JMMC, to homogenize your GUI across all the 3 main desktop OS, and further integrates your app to them.
Its primary goal is to centralize all GUI apps shared functionalities (e.g menubar handling, about box window, ...) in order to provide end users with a more consistent, feature-reach, desktop-class application family, as integrated as possible across Linux, Mac OS X and Windows, while freeing you developers of this tedious work !
The ultimate goal is to leverage your end users knowledge of their favorite platform, to let them fill right at home while using your applications, thus improving the perceived quality of your products while factorizing and sharing your development efforts.
Your app then feels better to the end user (by truly respecting its platform of choice), and we free you of all those nasty details !
The javadoc is included in our releases.

jMCS uses maven to build from sources. Please type the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/JMMC-OpenDev/jmcs.git
# first time only: install parent-pom and missing libraries in maven repositories:
cd jMCS/parent-pom
mvn -Dassembly.skipAssembly -Djarsigner.skip=true clean install
cd ..
mvn process-resources
# build jMCS jar files
mvn clean install
# build testgui jar files (if needed)
cd testgui
mvn clean install
Jar files are then available in target directory !
You also get the option to use prepared jar under the 'Download' section of prepared releases.
To skip tests, just run:
# build jMCS jar files without any test:
mvn clean install -DskipTests
# check updates on dependencies:
mvn versions:display-dependency-updates
Requirements:
- OpenJDK 8+
- Maven 3.6+
