And here... I was so stoked "finally, I'm going to get a modern primer on creating GUIs with Swing." Might be nice to add something in the title that this is about dance and not creating GUIs.

There's also an article 'Distribution of JVM Desktop Applications' on the front page, so between that and this, i thought there was some kind of Swing revival going on.

It's funny I had the exact same thought before opening the link, "Weird, a Swing article on the front page of HN? The same Swing that was causing me sadness every time I tried to figure out why a component was expanding/not expanding like I wanted to?"

I was expecting it to be about dance, but it’s actually about swing music (and jazz, and other musical styles following that tradition).
