synth is a skinnable Java look and feel, which is configured with an XML property file.^[1]

According to Sun, goals for synth were:

• Enable to create custom look without writing any code.
• Allow appearance to be configured from images.
• Provide the ability to customize the look of a component based on its named properties.
• Provide a centralized point for overriding the look of all components.
• Enable custom rendering based on images, or user-defined SynthPainters.
