That's another interesting question, if JSF is all-component, what do I need tiles for? I mean Tiles was cool to define a common renderer for an abstract view-component which was then implicitely defined with struts-classic. Now JSF supports component-rendering which should make Tiles obsolete. What would I need Tiles for then? Or do I miss something (as usual)? :-)
In my limited experience with JSF it does not seem to contain templating capabilities. So in Struts classic I would use Tiles for creating site templates as well as reusable views (or component-based views). But with JSF Tiles still proves useful for templating and for further breaking up view components into smaller reusable pieces. But, honestly, I have yet to use the two together simply because I haven't built a real app on JSF yet. So much of my view is based on conceptual thinking and not real world experience.
