Контейнеры Swing, перечислены ниже:
| Box | A general-purpose container that arranges children using the BoxLayout layout manager. |
| JApplet | A java.applet.Applet subclass that contains a JRootPane to add Swing features, such as support for menu bars to applets. |
| JDesktopPane | A container for JInternalFrame components; simulates the operation of a desktop within a single window. Supports MDI (multiple document interface) application styles. |
| JDialog | The container used to display dialog boxes in Swing. |
| JFrame | The container used for top-level windows in Swing. |
| JInternalFrame | A lightweight nested window container. Behaves like a JFrame and displays a titlebar and resize handles but is not an independent window and is constrained to appear within the bounds of its parent container. Often used with JDesktopPane. |
| JLayeredPane | A container that allows its children to overlap and manages the stacking order of those children. |
| JPanel | A generic container for grouping Swing components. Typically used with an appropriate LayoutManager. |
| JRootPane | A complex container used internally by JApplet, JDialog, JFrame, JInternalFrame, and JWindow. Provides a number of important Swing capabilities to these top-level containers. |
| JScrollPane | A container that allows a single child component to be scrolled horizontally or vertically. Supports scrolling and non-scrolling header regions at the top and left of the scrolling region. |
| JSplitPane | A container that displays two children by splitting itself horizontally or vertically. Allows the user to adjust the amount of space allocated to each child. |
| JTabbedPane | A container that displays one child at a time, allowing the user to select the currently displayed child by clicking on tabs like those found on manila file folders. |
| JViewport | A fixed-size container that displays a portion of a single larger child. Typically used as part of a JScrollPane. |
| JWindow | A top-level Swing window that does not display a titlebar, resize handles, or any other decorations. |
