I should clarify my question here, I want to practice my programming skills and I want to develop a simple diagram modeling tool, something where I can move objects with the mouse, drag and drop, but I have no idea where to look to learn this kind of things in Java.

I hope my question is clear, thank you.

Answer 1

Are you looking at a desktop application or a web based application?

For a desktop based application, you should start looking a swing or javafx to get started with the basic ideas and the move along.

For web application, it is a bit more complicated for a beginner. I suggest you to start with spring examples and then implement the front end with the help of some javascript library. Like JQuery, Dojo and Draw2D etc.
