In this project of Java, we are going to learn about the User interface and how we will build a phone call experience in it.
Swing in Java is a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that includes the GUI functions,
It is a part of Java Foundation Classes(JFC), which is also an API for Java programs that provide GUI.
We will learn about the Swing hierarchical flow chart:

1. Container Class:
The container class can be described as an important component that holds the gathering of the components.
2. JButton Class:
The JButton class is used to create a labeled button. The application results in action when the button is clicked.
3. JTextField Class:
It inherits the JTextComponent class and is used to edit the single-line text.
4. JScrollBar Class:
It is used to add a scroll bar, both horizontally and vertically.
5. JPanel Class:
It inherits the JComponent class and provides space for an application that attaches another component.
6. JMenu Class:
It inherits the JMenuItem class and is a pull-down menu component.
7. JList Class:
It inherits JComponent class, the object of JList class represents a list of text items.
8. JLabel Class:
It inherits JComponent class and is used for placing text in a container.
9. JComboBox Class:
It inherits the JComponent class and is used to show a pop-up menu of choices.
10. Layout Manager
To arrange the components inside a container we use the layout manager.
