Upon completion of the course the student will
- know the fundamental knowledge and skills to implement graphical user interfaces,
- know how to utilize the most common user interface components,
- know and be able to utilize common graphical user interface related software architecture patterns.

Practical implementation in 2018:

This is an intermediate level programming course. The course is implemented in two parallel tracks: Java-based and web technology-based. Students can choose between the two tracks.

• The Java-based track requires basic Java programmin skills (e.g., TIEP1, TIEP5, TIEA2.1). and graphical user interface programming is done using Swing UI library using NetBeans IDE.

• The web technology-based track requires basic skills in JavaScript programming, HTML and CSS (e.g., TIETA9) and programming is done using React framework and Material-UI interface library.

The course grading is based on the completion of weekly programming exercises. Full remote participation is possible with per participant agreement. Lectures will be available on-line.

Passing this part of the course will result in 5cu marking which can be expanded to 10cu by completing a project work. The project can be done during the summer, or with special agreement, at later time.

Moodle is used during the course for communication and returning the exercises.
