--------------------------------------
Hi [~jamesyong],
thanks for your work!
As I said in the mailing list, I think this approach is too different from the
OFBIz architecture (using beans etc. for the UI) and might be too heavy to
adopt.
I think a (partial) rewrite of the UI html code and widgets using a standard
css framework like Bootstrap will be less effort.
You kind of agreed here:

What would be the advantages of using JSF from your point of view?
> POC: Using JSF
> --------------

> Key: OFBIZ-9469
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-9469
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: James Yong
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: OFBIZ-9469.patch

>
> JavaServerFaces (JSF) can be used to build Rich Internet Applications which
> is suitable for business-facing part of an ERP system.
> Some Advantages
> ==============
> JSF is similar to OFBiz widget; both can use declarative XML UI.
> JSF can map directly to a backing bean and doesn't requires any request
> mapping.
> JSF also allows the direct coding of HTML within the XML, while OFBiz widgets
> need to link to external FTL file.
> I have done some initial work to add JSF capabilities for developers to
> evaluate its suitability further. It is also possible to render OFBiz Widgets
> (for reuse) and programmatically placed within JSF, but I haven't go into it
> yet.
