Icefaces has been easy to start thus far. I downloaded the latest stable release(1.6.2) from their site and also installed Bea Icefaces tooling support. The distribution ships with a few "ready to go" applications to work - deploy, run, check source.This is very convenient. It reminded me of Struts which always had some sample applications to start like struts-blank.war.

After playing around initially, i decided to setup and run a very simple Icefaces application on my own on Workshop.The intention was to build on this for the oscommerce like application that i have decided to develop to try full feature set of Icefaces. Another intention was to set up a robust environment for further development and setting the configurations right at the outset.
