JSF Alternatives & Comparisons

What are some alternatives to JSF?

AngularJS

AngularJS

AngularJS lets you write client-side web applications as if you had a smarter browser. It lets you use good old HTML (or HAML, Jade and friends!) as your template language and lets you extend HTML’s syntax to express your application’s components clearly and succinctly. It automatically synchronizes data from your UI (view) with your JavaScript objects (model) through 2-way data binding.

Vue.js

Vue.js

It is a library for building interactive web interfaces. It provides data-reactive components with a simple and flexible API.

Backbone.js

Backbone.js

Backbone supplies structure to JavaScript-heavy applications by providing models key-value binding and custom events, collections with a rich API of enumerable functions, views with declarative event handling, and connects it all to your existing application over a RESTful JSON interface.

Angular

Angular

It is a TypeScript-based open-source web application framework. It is a development platform for building mobile and desktop web applications.

guava

guava

The Guava project contains several of Google's core libraries that we rely on in our Java-based projects: collections, caching, primitives support, concurrency libraries, common annotations, string processing, I/O, and so forth.

Ember.js

Ember.js

A JavaScript framework that does all of the heavy lifting that you'd normally have to do by hand. There are tasks that are common to every web app; It does those things for you, so you can focus on building killer features and UI.

Needs adviceonJavaScriptJavaScriptJSFJSFPythonPython

Hello guys, my first time here, and for requesting advice.

I am a JavaScript Developer MERN Stack with a focus on Frontend Development. I wanna go more to Backend Development.

Which Language has a Solid Ecosystem and not so many changes like JavaScript Frontend, quite Frankly that's freaking me out nowadays!

In my Location Germany Industries, Finance, Utilities, Insurances, Retails, and Healthcare dominate Java in the Backend. In my case Java is the logical choice BUT, XML, old codebase, JSP/JSF , boring and verbose syntax without Syntactic Sugar, test Battle, and so on make me crazy.

I have Java, Python, Golang, and Node.js/TypeScript as a choice, but because of a lack of Backend knowledge, I can't make a decision. Which Language and Ecosystem should I learn and master for a long time, my Goal is to work with a selected stack for 10+ years and I don't do Data Science only Software Engineering.

Thanks for reading and Advice! Important! !!! I see via Email somebody send me an Advice, but unfortunately i can't see/read your Advice here :( Users like: Jose Manuel Ortega or nullStack65....

Needs adviceonJSFJSFJavaScriptJavaScriptSpringSpring

Hello guys! I would ask for your advice. Our situation is like that there will be a project to revamp workflows and introduce new services like mobile apps, machine learning, and some online services that would use cloud storage. We use JSF, JavaScript, Ajax, Spring, Oracle 12c running on Linux (VM) and providing online services to internal users and the public. But, we are not technically savvy enough to evaluate what tools should be introduced. Personally, I am evaluating whether to take this opportunity to change our practice/PM approach from Prince to Scrum/Agile (It seemed that DevOps is popular) ... Since we adopt ISO 27001 and ISO 20000, security is a crucial factor that we consider. Would you please help to recommend a list of tools and explain the reasons why you recommend them? Thanks in advance~!

Needs adviceonJavaJavaJSFJSFBootstrapBootstrap

I need to modernize a Java web application that runs on JSF. I am used to building websites, so Bootstrap kinda feels like "home." But when it comes to applications, I feel Bootstrap is not the right way to go. Can someone explain to me what PrimeFaces is capable of in comparison with BS?
