Book Description

JavaServer Faces Version 2.2 (JSR-344) is the standard for implementing the web layer of an application in Java EE 7. This Cloud Tutorial will see us implement the user interface of a sample application. Besides the standard JSF UI component library an additional library, PrimeFaces, will be used in the end to improve user experience. Our aim is to introduce the reader to the necessary technologies step-by-step as we move through the implementation process.
