In the last section we explained how you can develop
"SimpleHelloByEnteringName" JSF example. In this, we will show
you how you can quickly download and install the source code of the application
provided by us. This will help you start JSF easily without spending time in
installing and configuring JSF application your self.
STEPS-

JSF application form here.
- Extract the zip file anywhere. You will get a folder
named "SimpleHelloByEnteringName".
- Download tomcat 5.5.23 or latest version and install
it (I am assuming that you are comfortable with tomcat installation)

to the webapps directory of tomcat.
- Run the tomcat

This is the final output of this application. Now we
expect that you can build your own application that may be as simple as
explained here or even complex. Here, it was an attempt to provide you a simple
structure of web application that makes you clear about directory structure
means where to place what and how to write code and mappings.

I've just gone thru the JSF tutorial and what can I say, you did a heck of a job coming up with this tutorial. It is by far the best tutorial i've come across to learn JSF for starters like me. Keep up the good work...
