No, swing is pretty out of fashion if not deprecated. I know it pretty well, but still wouldn't choose it if starting a new project today.

I'd use Qt, though if you're not comfortable with C++ I've been told JavaFX is pretty good

Swing is standard part of JDK, there is nothing deprecated, it even got a Metal backend.
Awesome, thank you, that is great to hear
ive tried javafx but its always easier to me to go back to swing, if it aint broke dont fix it.
