<p>There is now a GUI built using <a href="https://www.scalafx.org/">scalafx</a> to allow users who do not wish to use the <a href="/docs/applications/cli">command line interface</a> to interact with a Bitcoin-S wallet.
This GUI is currently very minimal and looks something like this:</p>
<p><img src="gui-snapshot.png" alt=""></p>
<p>At the time of writing this document, creating addresses and sending Bitcoin are the only supported wallet functionalities in the wallet's RPC API. The expansion of this interface will enable a more robust GUI and this issue is being tracked <a href="https://github.com/bitcoin-s/bitcoin-s/issues/1284">here</a>.</p>

<p>There are two ways to run the GUI</p>

<p>The GUI will only function properly if it can connect to the <a href="/docs/applications/server">bitcoin-s server</a> which must be
running in the background before running the GUI.</p>
<p>To run the gui, simply execute</p>
<pre><code class="hljs css language-bashrc">sbt gui/<span class="hljs-keyword">run</span><span class="bash">
</span></code></pre>
<p>The gui can be built into an executable using the <a href="https://www.scala-sbt.org/sbt-native-packager/">sbt native packager</a>.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.scalafx.org/">ScalaFX</a> is a scala library wrapping <a href="https://openjfx.io/">JavaFX</a> which is itself a java interface to <a href="https://www.gtk.org/">GTK</a> (which is useful to know when googling for answers as it is easier to search for answers in GTK or sometimes javafx and then translate them to scalafx).</p>
<p>ScalaFX itself requires the dependency</p>
<pre><code class="hljs css language-scala"><span class="hljs-string">"org.scalafx"</span> %% <span class="hljs-string">"scalafx"</span>
</code></pre>
<p>but full use of the library requires also adding these dependencies:</p>
<pre><code class="hljs css language-scala"><span class="hljs-string">"org.openjfx"</span> % <span class="hljs-string">"javafx-base"</span>
<span class="hljs-string">"org.openjfx"</span> % <span class="hljs-string">"javafx-controls"</span>
<span class="hljs-string">"org.openjfx"</span> % <span class="hljs-string">"javafx-fxml"</span>
<span class="hljs-string">"org.openjfx"</span> % <span class="hljs-string">"javafx-graphics"</span>
<span class="hljs-string">"org.openjfx"</span> % <span class="hljs-string">"javafx-media"</span>
<span class="hljs-string">"org.openjfx"</span> % <span class="hljs-string">"javafx-swing"</span>
<span class="hljs-string">"org.openjfx"</span> % <span class="hljs-string">"javafx-web"</span>
</code></pre>
<p>which for some reason must all be classified by the OS of the machine they are running on.</p>
<p>A GUI can now be built by creating an object which extends <code>scalafx.application.JFXApp</code> and setting the <code>stage</code> var to a <code>new JFXApp.PrimaryStage</code> whose <code>scene</code> is your <code>Node</code> (where <code>Node</code> is the super-class in this framework for all GUI elements).</p>
