Guys,

I appreciate the feedback and am glad there are others successfully implementing facelets. One comment I received was that facelets was too experimental!?

I have already downloaded the examples and got them working in minutes :-)

Should we decide to migrate an older project to facelets is it possible to use the two view technologies side-by-side so we could migrate page by page? I'm sure I saw something regarding setting a default view tech. in the context?

My experience is that development with facelets over JSP-JSF is much faster and saves a lot of time (complex controls, templating, functions, etc. are all extremely time consuming or impossible with JSF on JSF). In addition, perforamnce is better. So your timeline should be less and your code faster. I still wonder why anyone would want to use JSF without Facelets except possibly when converting a legacy JSP application to JSF.

    JSP.  I believe all JavaOne presentations are now online on the
    java.net <http://java.net> website.  The title was something like
    "Ajax done right.".

    Hi all,

    I've recently just *discovered* facelets.

    This has probably come just at the right time. After choosing the JSF
    path approx. a year ago our Java developers have gained much valuable
    experience but alas our design boys keep resisting due to the lack of
    freedom they have when working with default JSF. The advent of
    facelets
    and the templating possibilities has renewed their enthousiasm and we
    have them back on board :-)

    However....I'm worried that by choosing facelets we'll be riding that
    bleeding edge wave again with all it's up's & downs. Great for
    POC's but
    bad when you have a strict deadline.

    My question is really if there are many others using facelets, what
    their experience is and specifically how it performs??

    THX

    Colin
