Graphic User Interface

Question

Is there a way to make a more elegant UI easily? (Maybe something like Google Chrome)

Is there a framework or something do this?

--EDIT

It would be best in Python/Java/C++. I don't mind learning something new.

Answer 1

Yes. It is known as "Rapid Application Development" or RAD. Under RAD, graphical user interfaces (GUIs) are developed using a What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get (WYSIWYG) GUI editing software.

For Java, the NetBeans IDE features a very high quality GUI editor which generates Java code using the Java Swing classes. For C++, QtCreator features a high quality GUI editor using the Qt framework.

Answer 2

My personal favorite GUI designing software is Microsoft Visual Studio. It's very simple, literally drag and drop GUI design. While Visual Studio as a whole isn't free, different free "express" editions are available. The only difference is with the express editions is that you're limited to a single language. I would recommend trying out Visual C# Express which can be found here:

As for the C# language, it's a blend of C++ and Java. It's very easy to pick up if you've used either language before and is well documented at www.msdn.com.
