Welcome to the Apache MyFaces Project

Apache MyFaces is a project of the Apache Software Foundation, and hosts several sub-projects relating to the JavaServer(tm) technology. If you want to know more about how JavaServer(tm) Faces works, take a look at the MyFaces introduction to JSF

The Apache MyFaces project provides:

  • a JavaServer(tm) Faces implementation (MyFaces API, MyFaces Impl modules)
  • several component libraries containing UI widgets for building web-applications with JSF (e.g. MyFaces Tomahawk, MyFaces Trinidad, MyFaces Tobago)
  • extension packages to JavaServer(tm) Faces (e.g. MyFaces Orchestra)
  • integration modules to other technologies and standards (e.g. MyFaces Portlet Bridge for integration with the portlet-standard)

Quickstart

  • Make sure to have a look at our component libraries examples. For Tomahawk, you can find a working distribution here . The source-code is available as part of the MyFaces Tomahawk project.
  • Find instructions on installing them yourselves in our Getting Started section. For additional information, you can refer to our WIKI
