Graphical User Interface – GUI

A Graphical User Interface, or GUI, is a visual way for people to interact with computers using icons, buttons, and menus instead of text-based commands. This type of interface makes technology easier to use by replacing typed instructions with images and graphical elements.

A GUI allows users to perform tasks such as opening files, moving windows, or adjusting settings through point-and-click actions. It is commonly found in operating systems, mobile apps, and software programs. GUIs are built using various design frameworks and programming tools that focus on usability and accessibility. The goal of a GUI is to simplify interaction and enhance the user experience, particularly for users unfamiliar with coding or command-line tools.
