The JSF specification has its own set of rules specified in navigating the pages in JSF. They are such as which view has to be displayed or redirected based on the clicked button or the link on the previous web or JSF page. A set of navigation rules exist in order to redirect the pages and render the data content on to the web page of the device browser.

Resource Bundling mainly stores the UI date, label, status messages, and UI textual elements separately in the properties file and does not do any hardcoding in the page. It is one of the most convenient methods. Resource bundles are stored in .inproperties file extension because they are key-value pair of strings. This maintenance keeps the messages in a single place.

Managed Bean: It is a basic bean java class of JSF. This java bean is being managed by the JSF framework. It consists of getter and setter methods and business logic. Managed beans generally work for UI component as a model. It can be easily accessed from the JSF page. Backing Bean: It is a subpart of the managed bean. It contains all the properties of UI components in a JSF page.
This bean is used in UI conversion, component validations, and event handling. Almost all the features of UI components binds with a backing bean in JSF page.

The primary purpose of JSF is to make the construction process of the user interface simple. This UI is used for server-based applications, and the components can be reusable in a page. It connects the UI widgets with data sources. It provides the standard UI components and API (Application Programming Interface) majorly for developing components.

The Backing beans in JSF are the Java Beans which are used to implement the UI or front end logic in order to manage the data flow between the business tier and web server tier. Ideally, one backing bean does exist for each JSF page. In JSF 1.2 version, a managed bean should be registered in JSF configuration file facesconfig.xml in order to make it functional. From JSF 2.0 version onwards the same configuration can be avoided and Annotations can be used to apply this configuration.

The Value expression usually fetches a value or a set of values. These expressions can be categorized into rvalue and Ivalue expressions. The Ivalue expressions can read as well as write data whereas on the other hand rvalue expression can only read the data.
The method expression allows the users to involve a public method of the bean which returns the result that is important for validation of the data component and for handling the events.

Spring uses Inversion of Control (IoC) and Dependency Injection (DI), but JSF does not.
Spring consists of many different modules, such as Spring Data, Security, MVC, and many other perfectly interacting parts. This helps create larger applications at lower cost, while JSF is likely to require more coding for the many necessary functions.
Using DI in the spring allows you to embed POJO classes, while JSF can only work with JEE architecture.

There are various ways to implement localization in JSF, both by standard methods and using other frameworks (for example, Spring). The main meaning of localization in JSF is the absence of hardcoded component values, text data, etc. in the code. You must set a property and link it using the resource bundle file, which will store the set of values for each language (locale).

In general, at the moment there is an opinion that these concepts should not be distinguished (for example, spring does this). But if you need to somehow answer differently, then:
1. backing bean should be specified in request scoped . Backing bean is associated with a form.
2. Managed bean can be defined in request , session , application scopes. This type of bean is registered in the context of the JSF application and can be invoked or created at any time and place. Managed beans work with JSF graphics components.

name : specifies the unique name of the class (bean) in JSF. If the name is not specified, the name is the same as the name of the class where the first letter is in lower case.
eager : indicates the creation time of the bean. If true, then a bin will be created at the start of the application, if false, the bin will be created upon the first request to it.

Using @ManagedProperty annotation, the bean can be injected into another bean property by using the bean’s setter method. We need a value attribute containing the bean name that is required to be injected.

Instant expressions are executed and calculated at the stage of rendering the display. Deferred expressions are executed by a direct call. For example, executing a method when clicking a button or getting a property value when building a fragment of a display (for example, when building a table, you need to get data values).

Value expression retrieves a value and sets a value. They are further divided into rvalue expression and lvalue expression. rvalue can only read data, whereas lvalue can read as well write data.

To call multiple listeners in JSF, there is a JSF tag for “value change listeners” and one for “action listeners” that can be availed to link one or more than one listeners to an element. While using the tag syntax, you will be declaring a class that implements a listener interface. For value change listener tag is <f:valueChangeListener> and for action listeners tag is <f:actionListener>.
