As long as Constructor remains commented out, not showing anything is correct behaviour.
public static void main(String[] args) {

As MadProgrammer mentioned – you need to make the Frame visible to make all the Components within visible:
// REPLACE THIS mainPanel.setVisible(true);
mainFrame.setVisible (true); //WITH THAT
