SwingJS is a tool for rapidly and easily converting Java Swing applets to JavaScript.

Java applets for web applications have become outdated and clumsy, requiring the user-install of Java, updated security certificates, and use of specific browers. Thousands of web sites depending upon these applets are no longer functional. By converting Java applets to JavaScript, we can maintain the functionality of the applets, thereby returning these web pages to service.

This website was created to demonstrate and archive the applets that we have successfully converted to JavaScript without need for extenstive rewriting of the Java code or starting de novo. They are not "ported" to JavaScript. They are created in parallel with standard Java development, along with their Java counterparts.
