jsf - Remove all styling from Primefaces components?

Question

Is it possible to remove all styling from Primefaces components? I mean, the component set is good but having to manually override every tiny bit of each component to make the component style fit the overall design of my application isn't good. I can't use hours on using Firebug to find which classes etc it uses and all that.

So is there no way to remove this and only use the components for their functionality and provide your own design instead of being forced to use the default....or one of the "themes"?

Answer 1

Set primefaces.THEME context parameter to none and you'll get a functional ui with no styles.

<context-param>
    <param-name>primefaces.THEME</param-name>
    <param-value>none</param-value>
</context-param>

You don't need to spend hours editing styles. Styling of PrimeFaces is done via shared styles like ui-widget-header, ui-widget-content which you can customize via the themeroller web form. I don't think JSF and theming can get any easier than PrimeFaces.
