Graphic User Interface for MySQL database. Is using Java good idea?

Question

I would like to make nice GUI for MySQL database (something nice and easy to use for non-coders). I think the best programming language for this project is Java... I am beginner so is Java good idea for this? Any sugestions?
(This project is probably hard to start with, but it is a good motivation/challenge for me...:-) )
Big thanks!

Answer 1

I would use Java.. I may be biased as it's the language I started with and know best, but I feel it is hands down the best for gui stand alone application. Another good option is to use node and create a local server and use html/css/js, but in my opinion Java would be just a bit better.
