What is the best practice to seperate application logic from UI?

I'm currently working on a console app that will later be implemented with a GUI I want to take the chance to train the best practices for seperation of conerns. What would be the best way to do it? have a different Prompter class? different package? project?

thanks!

you might consider taking a look at stack overflow. I googled "best practice to separate application logic from UI java" and got https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19606026/separating-logic-gui . I think one of the authors deals with pretty much the same question (but maybe doesn't provide the precise implementation details). Might give you ideas.
