The Apache MyFaces team is pleased to announce the release of Apache Tobago 3.0.0.
Apache Tobago is a component library for JavaServer Faces (JSF) that allows to write web-applications without the need of coding HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Main new features ----------------- * LayoutManager moved from Server to CSS (or JS in limited cases) * Themes using CSS lib Bootstrap 4 http://getbootstrap.com/ * Responsiveness * Simplify many things by using current technologies * Easier to integrate Tobago in other projects * Easier to integrate libraries in Tobago * In general: do less magic, but more standard A more detailed list you will find in the demo: http://irian.biz/tobago-example-demo/faces/content/10-intro/30-new+in+3+0/new+in+3+0.xhtml Changes ------- Please check the release notes at http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12310273&styleName=Html&version=12325880 for a full list of the changes in this version. A migration guide you will find in the demo: http://irian.biz/tobago-example-demo/faces/content/10-intro/50-migration/97-migration/migration30.xhtml Known limitations and bugs: --------------------------- The classic grid layout manager is not working exactly in the same manner as before. Here are some issues, especially for vertical layout. The main focus of this release was segment layout and flex layout. Currently we have only the standard theme. The other themes have only some colors changed, but are not fascinating. So these themes (scarborough, speyside, richmond, charlotteville) are excluded from the release. Also some examples are no longer in active development (test, addressbook). Some of its content should be migrated to the "demo", before removing them, but this may be done later. They are also excluded from the release. For more information about Apache Tobago, please visit http://myfaces.apache.org/tobago/. Have fun, -The MyFaces team
