How can Primefaces be used with the Cupertino theme without using Maven?

edit

PrimeFaces is a popular UI library for JavaServer Faces (JSF) applications that offers more than 100 components and themes, including Cupertino. Here are five steps to integrate the Cupertino theme into your PrimeFaces project without using Maven:

1. Download the Cupertino theme package: Go to the PrimeFaces website and download the Cupertino theme package. This package contains the theme files in CSS, font, and image formats.

2. Store the theme files: Extract the theme files and store them in your project's resources directory. For example, create a folder named "cupertino" under "resources/css" and copy the theme files to this folder.

3. Configure the theme in web.xml: Add the following context-param element to your web.xml file to configure the Cupertino theme for your application:

<context-param>
    <param-name>primefaces.THEME</param-name>
    <param-value>cupertino</param-value>
</context-param>

1. Update the JSF page: Add the following tag to the head section of your JSF page to include the theme CSS file:

<h:outputStylesheet name="css/cupertino/theme.css" />

1. Verify the theme: Run your application and verify that the Cupertino theme is applied to your PrimeFaces components.

Note that while the above steps show how to include PrimeFaces Cupertino theme manually, using a build tool like Maven can make it easier to manage the version and dependencies of PrimeFaces and its themes.
