Gap
Our frontend module currently covers Thymeleaf and JSP. It does not handle JSF or FreeMarker templates, which are common in enterprise Spring applications.
Proposal
Extend modules/frontend.md to detect and migrate:
- JSF → Qute (for small projects, < 5 view files) or JSF → Quarkus MyFaces (for larger projects)
- FreeMarker → Qute
Gate condition update
New: "Thymeleaf/JSP/FreeMarker templates in templates/ or static resources in static/, or JSF XHTML files in webapp/"
What to cover
FreeMarker → Qute:
.ftl / .ftlh files → .html Qute templates${variable} syntax is similar, but FreeMarker directives (<#if>, <#list>) → Qute equivalents ({#if}, {#for})FreeMarkerConfigurer bean → remove (Qute auto-configured)
JSF → Quarkus MyFaces (large projects):
- Add
quarkus-myfaces extension
- Migrate
javax.faces.* → jakarta.faces.*
@ManagedBean → @Named + @RequestScoped/@ViewScoped- XHTML files move to
META-INF/resources/
faces-config.xml → CDI-based navigation
JSF → Qute (small projects):
- Rewrite XHTML to Qute templates
- Managed beans → CDI beans with
@Inject in Qute templates
