Hello rptech,
Yes applets are displayed within webpages. If you want a GUI without using a web browser, you can use Java Swing.
Take a look at these 2 links:
Java applet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swing_(Java)
If you are looking to build Swing applications. I would suggest looking into the Netbeans IDE.
