Q: 

Free GUI-like web design tool for Java?

Our company needs to build web solution and we're somewhat short on time. We use Java and do not have a design yet.

We're looking for some tools/plugins for:

  • GUI-like web design (drag and drop components)
  • WYSIWYG
  • The tools must be *free

We like GWT but any other UI framework is fine. Plugins for NetBeans or Eclipse would be great. Any ideas?

A: 

NetBeans has Visual Web JSF support. Fits all of your requirements.

@Peter C.: Really! Wow! Did not know that. Is there a replacement?

@JRL : I would not be asking if there was one ;'(

@Peter C.: didn't even realize you were the OP. Sorry about that.

@JRL No problem ... I am kind of surprised why there is such a lack of those tools ...

A: 

If you use MyEclipse IDE it has a visual designer. It is not free, it is cheap and it has a 30 day trial.
