spring mvc with facelets

Question

Is it possible to use facelets as view technology with Spring MVC? There is no mention about it in the official documentation, but I've heard that Facelets are very convenient and easy to use and I'd like to try it, I just don't know how...

Answer 1

It might be worth trying Spring Web Flow, that comes with JSF2 (facelets) support:

This link to the official documentation has a sample app integrating Spring WebFlow with faces.
