Hi All,
Is it easier to learn ? In any case JSF is a standard...

JSF has many drawbacks. It's not practical. That bloody faces-config.xml file. Templates are a mess. Custom components are way too much work to implement. It sometimes gets in your way for very simple things. Select boxes need a JSF-specific SelectItem class (why??). I could go on. JSF wasn't designed by people who write web apps in the real world and it shows.
Wicket suffers from none of these drawbacks.
JSF has funding behind it - Wicket does not.
Shame on you JSF.

I guess comparing Wicket to JSF is like comparing Hibernate to EJB 1 Entity Beans.Originally posted by John Todd:
