Apache's implementation of the JavaServer Faces (JSF) and Jakarta Faces specification
Jakarta Faces 5.0 implementation
Based on the refactored 2.3-next codebase
Completely refactored codebase compared to 2.3, also providing a Quarkus extension
2.3-next equals the JSF 2.3 API but delegates @ManagedBeans to CDI; ManagedBeans configured via XML are completely ignored. The implementation of the old FacesEL (javax.faces.el.*) also has been completely removed.
- Java 17+
- Servlet 5.0+
- EL 5.0+
- CDI 4.0+
- JSTL 3.0+ (optional)
- BV 3.0+ (optional)

</html>Since 2.3-next a Quarkus extension is available. A sample project can be found here: https://github.com/apache/myfaces/blob/main/extensions/quarkus/showcase/
- Quarkus Uber-JARs are not supported (See: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-4427)
- Quarkus does not support session replication / passivation / clustering
- Quarkus beans are not serializable and therefore session passivation would never work anyway
- Quarkus does not implement @ConversationScoped
- Quarkus does not support injection in normal objects, therefore injection in JSF artifacts like NavigationHandler etc. is not supported
- You need to put your views under src/main/resources/META-INF/resources as Quarkus doesn't create a WAR and src/main/webapp is ignored!
