Java Swing Checklist Exercise

Objective:

Develop a Java Swing application that provides a checklist functionality. Users should be able to add
items to the checklist, mark items as complete, and clear completed items.

Requirements:

1. Create the Main Frame:

 Use JFrame to create the main window of the application.

2. Add Input Field and Buttons:

 Include a JTextField for entering new checklist items.

 Add a JButton for adding items to the checklist.

 Add another JButton to clear completed items.

3. Checklist Display:

 Use a JList or DefaultListModel to display the checklist items.

 Each item in the checklist should have a checkbox (JCheckBox) to mark it as complete.

4. Adding Items:

 When the user enters text into the JTextField and clicks the add button, the item should
be added to the checklist.

5. Marking Items as Complete:

 Allow users to mark items as complete by checking the corresponding checkbox.

6. Clearing Completed Items:

 When the user clicks the clear button, remove all items that are marked as complete
from the checklist.

7. Layout Management:

 Use layout managers such as BorderLayout and FlowLayout to organize components in


the GUI.

8. Error Handling:

 Include basic error handling, such as not allowing empty items to be added to the
checklist.

Bonus Challenges:
1. Save and Load:
 Implement functionality to save the checklist to a file and load it when the application
starts.

2. Custom Rendering:

 Customize the look of checklist items, perhaps changing the color or font of completed
items.

3. Multiple Lists:

 Allow users to create multiple checklists and switch between them.
