A guide to contribute new GlassFish Admin Console pages

[Ondro Mihályi]

Hi all,

As the HacktoberFest is still running (https://hacktoberfest.com), I prepared a guide to contribute new pages or replace existing ones with a nicer look and functionality: 

• https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/glassfish/wiki/admin-console-faces-tutorial.adoc

The Eclipse GlassFish project participates in HacktoberFest so every PR to GlassFish counts. 

New pages can be created using standard Jakarta Faces, CDI and anything available in Jakarta EE Web Profile. No PrimeFaces at this time, we haven't decided yet on adding PrimeFaces to GlassFish but feel free to use PrimeFaces if you wish, we can decide to add them or will help you refactor to plain Faces. AI is nowadays very helpful in things like that but it can also help you create nice components just with pure Faces, HTML and javaScript.

Anybody, who feels like they're like to contribute some opensource goodness to GlassFish, feel free to check this guide out, play with the example and try to build something new. If you'd like to reach out, feel free to discuss on public GlassFish channels:

All the best,
