About

JavaServer Faces technology simplifies building user interfaces for JavaServer applications. Developers can build web applications by assembling reuseable UI components in a page; connecting these components to an application data source; and wiring client-generated events to server-side event handlers. This project provides information on the continued development of the JavaServer Faces specification.

JavaServer Faces (JSF) is a JCP Standard technology for authoring component based user interfaces on the Java EE platform. This particular GitHub project hosts the official JSF specification issue tracker. There are three implementations of the JSF specification, all of them developed with OSI approved Open Source licenses.

Current Status

  • JSF 2.3 is the designated user interface standard for Java EE 8. It went final on 17 April 2017.

  • JSF 2.2 is the user interface standard for Java EE 7 The most recent major release of JSF is 2.2. This release occurred on 21 May 2013.
