Your Swing app works, your users know it, and the request on the table is to make it run in a browser. The usual answer is a rewrite with a JavaScript framework, a new API layer, and a second team. At JavaOne 2026, Stephan Wald, our Head of Development at BASIS International, showed how to modernize a Java Swing app without JavaScript instead: put the existing app in the browser first, then build everything that comes next in Java with webforJ, the full-stack Java framework.

How far can you get with a Java installable web app in 15 minutes? At Devoxx UK, Stephan Wald, our Head of Development at BASIS International, took that challenge live on stage, while the audience scanned a QR code to open the finished app on their phones. Everything in it is Java, written with webforJ, the full-stack Java framework.

Maybe you've heard it in a meeting already: the app feels outdated, users want it in a browser and on their phones, and every upgrade feels slow and risky. If you need to move a Java app to the web and mobile, the answer in this webinar is to stay in Java. You run the existing app in the browser first, then rebuild it one piece at a time with webforJ, the full-stack Java framework, while the business logic keeps working.

The webforJ 25.x cycle covered a lot of ground: new components, a fresh design language, smarter AI tooling, and plenty of polish, and it all wrapped up with the 26.00 release. Rather than a long recap, here's a short video that walks through the highlights.
