With the release of Spring Web Flow 2, an integration module to connect this with JavaServer Faces (JSF) has been introduced. The name of the module is Spring Faces. This article by Markus Stäuble gives the description of the configuration of the integration of Spring Web Flow 2 with JSF. We primarily learn how to enable Spring Faces support.

HTML5 gives browser-based applications rich features rivaling those of desktop software. In this JSF 2 fu installment, you'll see how you can get the best of the Java™ and HTML5 worlds by implementing an HTML5 composite component with JavaServer Faces (JSF) 2.

In this article by Markus Stäuble, we will learn how to use Spring Faces and its integration with JSF component libraries.

This article presents five best practices for implementing Java™Server Faces composite components. By following these guidelines, you'll make it easy for page authors to extend your custom components.

Java PureFaces is a layer on top of JSF that simplifies implementation. Java PureFaces potentially offers a new approach to building the web tier of applications.

RichFaces, like most other rich/Ajax component frameworks designed for use with JavaServer Faces (JSF), was extensively revamped for compatibility with the significant changes in JSF 2. Joe Sam Shirah examines changed and new RichFaces 4.1 components that provide the same functionality he demonstrated in "An introduction to RichFaces" with version 3.1. He also updates the setup requirements for using RichFaces with JSF.

Java™Server Faces (JSF) 2 Expert Group member David Geary begins a new article series offering in-depth coverage of JSF 2 technology. In this installment, you'll learn how to integrate JSF 2's composite components with the framework's support for Ajax development.

In this JSF 2 fu installment, you'll find out how to combine JSF 2 with Contexts and Dependency Injection (CDI) to implement an Ajaxified wizard. You'll see JSF's templating and Ajax in action, and you'll learn how to use CDI's dependency injection and conversation scope.

This article takes a look under the covers of the <f:ajax> tag and introduces another supporting API that has been added to JSF 2: the component client behavior model. We'll see how client behaviors can be used not just for enabling Ajax, but also for attaching arbitrary client-side functionality to JSF 2 UI components.

Java™Server Faces (JSF) 2 Expert Group member David Geary continues his article series offering in-depth coverage of JSF 2 technology. In this installment, you'll learn how to let page authors add Ajax to your composite components, taking a close look at a powerful — but entirely undocumented — JSF 2.0 tag. And you'll see how to implement a reusable, general-purpose, Ajax-capable icon component in fewer than 25 lines of XML.
