I am studying primefaces themes on Primefaces user guide. https://storage.googleapis.com/google-code-archive-downloads/v2/code.google.com/primefaces/primefaces_users_guide_3_3.pdf At pag. 457 you can read: "Once you've downloaded the theme, configure PrimeFaces to use it
<context-param>
<param-name>primefaces.THEME</param-name>
<param-value>aristo</param-value>
</context-param>
Where should I put it? Into the webpage file I am developing? I choosed the jar file of Redmond theme and I imported it into my Eclipse Dynamic web project, but I don't see any improvement.
The Primefaces example I am testing is: https://www.primefaces.org/showcase/ui/data/datatable/basic.xhtml
Car.java
import java.util.Date;
public class Car {
private String model;
private int year;
private String manufacturer;
private String color;
public Car(String model, int year, String manufacturer, String color) {
this.model = model;
this.year = year;
this.manufacturer = manufacturer;
this.color = color;
}
public String getModel() {
return model;
}
public void setModel(String model) {
this.model = model;
}
public int getYear() {
return year;
}
public void setYear(int year) {
this.year = year;
}
public String getManufacturer() {
return manufacturer;
}
public void setManufacturer(String manufacturer) {
this.manufacturer = manufacturer;
}
public String getColor() {
return color;
}
public void setColor(String color) {
this.color = color;
}
}

<description>
This parameter tells MyFaces if javascript code should be allowed in
the rendered HTML output.
If javascript is allowed, command_link anchors will have javascript code
that submits the corresponding form.
If javascript is not allowed, the state saving info and nested parameters
will be added as url parameters.
Default is 'true'</description>
<param-name>org.apache.myfaces.ALLOW_JAVASCRIPT</param-name>
<param-value>true</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>
<description>
If true, rendered HTML code will be formatted, so that it is 'human-readable'
i.e. additional line separators and whitespace will be written, that do not
influence the HTML code.
Default is 'true'</description>
<param-name>org.apache.myfaces.PRETTY_HTML</param-name>

</context-param>
<context-param>
<description>
If true, a javascript function will be rendered that is able to restore the
former vertical scroll on every request. Convenient feature if you have pages
with long lists and you do not want the browser page to always jump to the top
if you trigger a link or button action that stays on the same page.
Default is 'false'
