GUI (graphical user interface) programming is the practice of building software with visual, interactive elements like windows, buttons, menus, and forms that users manipulate with a mouse, touch, or keyboard, as opposed to command-line interfaces. Developers use frameworks and toolkits such as Qt, WinForms, Tkinter, JavaFX, or web-based UI frameworks to design and implement these interfaces. It requires knowledge of event-driven programming, layout design, and user experience principles.
