About Imixs Faces

Imixs Faces is a component library based on JSF and jQuery, which helps you to develop business applications much faster. This library contains a set of components to be used in a JSF 2.0 Web Application and builds up on the capabilities of the Imixs Workflow Engine.

Since Java EE6 the lightweight Web Profiles simplifies the deployment of Java EE applications. This means that you can use Imixs Faces in your Web application without worry about the details of EJB and JPA deployment.

Imixs Faces provides widgets to design modern user interfaces. These widgets are based on jQuery and jQuery UI which is a powerful JavaScript framework to design Web 2.0 UIs. If you like to work with other JSF Web frameworks like RichFaces or Primefaces you can also use only a subset of this component library.

This project site gives an overview about the basic concepts behind the Imixs Faces and you will find also examples how to work with the components. Additional informations about this project are also given on this site.

General Goals

As Imixs Faces is build on top of the Imixs Workflow Engine the result of using these components is a scaleable and robust workflow application. Imixs Faces is build on Maven and fits into the lightweight Web Profiles supported by Java EE 6.
