Conclusion Developing an application using GUI components enhances user interaction
and experience by providing a visually appealing and user-friendly interface.
By integrating elements such as TextViews, Buttons, and Event Listeners, we
enable users to interact dynamically with the application. This experiment
highlights the importance of GUI design in software development,
demonstrating how various components work together to create an engaging
and functional application.
