Preface
JavaServer™ Faces (JSF) is the latest Java™ web application technology, building on the experience gained from Java Servlets, JavaServer™ Pages (JSP), and numerous commercial and open source web application frameworks. JSF defines an event-driven, component-based model for web application development, similar to the model that has been used successfully for standalone GUI application for years. This is an area that has received a lot of attention from vendors over the last few years. The highly anticipated publication of a Java Community Process (JCP) developed specification that addresses this need means that vendors can now focus on developing first-class development tools and user interface components based on the JSF specification rather than reinventing the wheel with proprietary APIs, and you will reap all the benefits of a larger market.
