Summary
The Mozilla Web site says it best: XUL is cool! We definitely recommend that component developers look at XUL as an alternative rendering technology for rich Web clients. Although initially it may seem overwhelming to create JSF components using XUL, it is actually pretty straightforward as long as you follow a well-defined blueprint.
A direct benefit of using XUL is the declarative component model you have at your disposal. XUL also enhances performance and reduces the amount of JavaScript you have to create and maintain.
We hope this chapter gave you a clear understanding that HTML is not the end of the road and that the limits of what we can do with the J2EE framework are sometimes in our own heads!
