PrimeFaces is an open source user interface (UI) component library for JavaServer Faces (JSF) based applications, created by PrimeTek,[3] Turkey.
History
The initial development of PrimeFaces was started in late 2008.[4] Predecessor of PrimeFaces is the YUI4JSF library,[5] a set of JSF components based on YUI JavaScript library. YUI4JSF got cancelled [6] in favor of PrimeFaces in early 2009.
Since its release, PrimeFaces has been strongly supported by Oracle, particularly within the NetBeans world.[7]
