* Pure-HTML templating, with a lightning-fast renderer, IKAT
* Build "components" using libraries of HTML rather than libraries of code.
* Both clients and framework use Spring for IoC throughout, no need to learn another file format or semantics.
* VERY lightweight, minimal and fast. So far the whole of RSF is less than 5000 8000 10000 lines of code and it isn't planned the core gets much bigger.
* Handles complete request lifecycle, but a fine-grained modularity allows you to plug in your favorite flow architecture (e.g. Spring Web Flow), your favorite persistence layer (e.g. Hibernate, iBatis).
* Ultra-lightweight component tree allows zero server state processing of requests, without closing the door to "heavy" persistent-component application styles.
* Pure bean programming model (like JSF, NO interfaces or base classes appear in your data model)
* Abstract component tree isolates view producers from the rendering technology.
* Default rendering system produces completely valid XHTML, as "accessible" as the template files you provide, which while requiring no Javascript to operate, is extremely friendly to Javascript and AJAX-rich development.
* "Right first time" rendering gets URLs, styling and layout correct even in complex portal/multiple client environments.
* Includes a request scope application context (RSAC) both for clean request-scope programming free of ThreadLocals, as well as for request model.
* Highly modular architecture allows "take-it-or-leave-it" integration with RSF - use just the renderer standalone (like a much smarter Velocity), use the renderer plus request decoder, or use the whole framework with your favorite components plugged in.
* RSF itself built using Spring and RSAC, so even core components can be replaced by just editing a config file.
