Simplyfing JavaServer Faces component development

The benefits of using JavaServer Faces UI components to rapidly construct complex, interactive user interfaces have become quite clear over the past couple of years. However, the standard process for developing these UI components is currently quite tedious. Fortunately, there are better solutions available.

This presentation examines techniques for easing the process of developing components with techniques such as annotations, convention over configuration, and templating. We'll examine solutions based on JSP tag files, Facelets, and Apache Shale. In addition, we will discuss how JSF 2 will simplify the process.
