These days with JSF 2 frameworks like Primefaces et all we do not really need any js , ajax is out of the box and we need little html know how too. Also they come with more than standard layouts and theme support.
James being an Apache product and Apache also develops JSF 2 imp, we should use JSF 2 with easiest and huge set of components like in Primefaces which is excellent documented highly active community. So my two cents +1 Primefaces -1 GWT Please note I have no affiliation or neither work for Prime Teknoloji :) On Wed, Apr 18, 2012 at 12:29 PM, Manuel Carrasco Moñino <[email protected]>wrote: > -1 JSF2 > +1 GWT > > Like JSF2, GWT is a proved technology, open sourced, and apache-2 licensed. > > GWT adds a set of benefices to James, mainly we continue being java centric > and we dont need serious javascript, ajax nor html skills to understand the > project, secondly we can deliver a product which is unit tested and > javadoc-ed in all its components. > > I don't want to expose the benefices of developing large rich apps with gwt > vs hand-written js because there is a lot of literature along the web. > > - Manolo > > On Fri, Apr 13, 2012 at 6:05 AM, Dhrubo <[email protected]> wrote: > > > I think we should move to JSF 2 than GWT which is mostly controlled by > one > > company. > > Apache with its vision and endeavor for OSS we should use - JSF 2 - > > Tomahawk (or Mojarra) + Primefaces > > > > On Thu, Apr 12, 2012 at 6:37 PM, Ioan Eugen Stan <[email protected] > > >wrote: > > > > > Pe 11.04.2012 18:48, echo a scris: > > > > > >> Hi Manolo > > >> Very glad to see your reply.
