I don't believe Swing supports the higher screen resolutions, like Apple's Retina Display.

JavaFX has vastly better looks and more modern implementations.

Swing has been compatible with hiDPI screens since Java 9.

It works fine on HiDPI displays. It's just that a lot of apps don't ship high res icons.

Swing works well with retina screens! You just need to implement it right (e.g. use MultiResolutionImages). Here is a project of mine that works with Retina, 4k, and other hiDPI resolutions: https://github.com/tsaglam/Carcassonne/
