Building Web 2.0 UIs with JSF, Realtime Updates with JSF and Ajax Push Taught at GIDS 2010
Posted 03/04/2010 - 05:34 by shaguf
JavaServer Faces is a Java-based Web application framework intended developed to simplify development integration of Web-based user interfaces. It is often mentioned together with Ajax, a combination of technologies that makes it possible to create rich user interfaces. Since JSF supports multiple output formats, Ajax-enabled components can easily be added to enrich JSF-based user interfaces. Oracle's Frank Nimphius says that Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) has become a reality in modern software development but Web services don't have a user interface. [Read More...]

What language does the mashlet use (flash, Ajax, etc)?
Many of our GUI/visual mashlets are Flash/Ajax. The tabular/text mashlets (such as the RSS mashlet, which you did not see) use HTML/XML.

The mashlet UI support OOTB is simply but has limited features, right? e.g., it's not possible if the users want to define some drag and drop features with JavaScript?
We bundle with EXT libraries (www.extjs.com) to create an OOTB experience. And since our APIs are open, you can build the UI in many other toolsets too; examples include BackBase, Flash/Flex, Silverlight, Java, JavaScript/Ajax, and Ruby.

Many of these websites that are data sources are Ajax-based, hence pages created on the fly. Can Mashup tools harness Ajax based websites as well?
Yes. Good screen-scaping tools can harvest Ajax-based data.

What charting package(s) do you use? Is there an available list of the specific chart types available? Is it possible to extend the existing chart set with 3rd party charting packages?
We use ExtJS and Fusion for visualization quite a bit. They are both great packages. Of course, we expose mashups in many standards data formats, letting you pick any Rich UI tool. This means you can use Flash, Flex, Silverlight, Ajax, etc. As for our the 'out of the box' chart types, you can learn more about them in our Documentation on our Mashup Developer Community (www.jackbe.com/dev).

Are you using .NET FRAMEWORK 3.5 with AJAX?
Most of our software is Java-based but we have integrated with .NET-driven tools like Microsoft SharePoint.
