JSF is a java web development framework like struts. There is a ton of information out there on it, you just jave to look. Here is an article from oreilly (introduction to jsf)

http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2004/04/07/jsf.html

another one (why java programmers need jsf)

http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2003/07/23/java_qa.html

There are a few reference implementations of jsf. One by sun microsystems (http://java.sun.com/j2ee/javaserverfaces/download.html) an another - probably the most popular by the good folks at apache (http://myfaces.apache.org). The apache site is a good place to start browsing around. Another site to check out would be jsfcentral.com where there are good links to articles, books, etc.

There are also a ton of good tutorials on the net on writing hello world type jsf applications.

Hope this helps.
