JSF is a specification. Mojarra and MyFaces are both implementations of JSF.

A specification theoretically defines how something should be.
An implementation is the practical real-world thing that is created according to the specification.

What about Primefaces,Richfaces these are also JSF implementation – Jul 28 '13 at 18:52
No, that's wrong. They are just frameworks that can be used on top of the JSF implementations (Mojarra or MyFaces). – Lester Jul 29 '13 at 05:46
Richfaces, Primefaces are component libraries. – SKR Apr 17 '18 at 06:34
