Choosing your Markup: JSPs or Facelets
ICEfaces supports JSF development using both JSPs and Facelets. However, each markup-type has its own strengths and weaknesses that must be considered:
JSPs |
Facelets |
- Leverage existing JSP knowledge
|
- Improved performance and scalability
|
- Excellent IDE vendor support
|
- Fast templating/decorators for comp., page re-use
|
|
|

Generally speaking, unless your project has compelling reasons to use JSPs, Facelets should be seriously considered for its many advantages over JSP-based development for JSF.
