The third JSF component library we can select when starting a new Java web application in NetBeans is RichFaces. NetBeans does not bundle the RichFaces JAR files out of the box; therefore, like with ICEfaces, we need to download the RichFaces libraries and create a NetBeans library from them.

Using RichFaces components in our JSF applications

The latest stable version of RichFaces can be downloaded from http://www.jboss.org/richfaces/download/stable.html.
