Yes tiles is somewhat a dated issue, most people indeed have moved over
to facelets, or at least many. Tiles and jsf is somewhat rough.


got starting points:
https://facelets.dev.java.net/


http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=facelets&titlesearch=Titles


and follow the documentation links.

Facelets is way less problematic and easier to use than tiles, but there
is one downside, it relies on an additional component definition xml,
there is to my knowledge no full coverage of
tomahawk and the sandbox, but you can get the defs for most components
in the myfaces wiki and on facelets.dev.java.net

(you have to add a little bit from jsf-comp for certain components
unfortunately)

but once you have everything in place they are a joy to use.
