Bento GUI

Bento GUI

Bento GUI is an expressive GUI library that makes building dynamic screens fast and easy. It is a replacement for Minecraft’s UI widgets that is inspired by HTML and CSS.

Features:

• Many UI elements provided out of the box
• Build elements using the builder pattern
• Robust layout engine with min/max and auto-computed dimensions
• Customizable element rendering

Bento GUI is documented in-code with JavaDocs and on my wiki.
