guava vs JSF: What are the differences?

Developers describe guava as "Google Core Libraries for Java 6+". The Guava project contains several of Google's core libraries that we rely on in our Java-based projects: collections, caching, primitives support, concurrency libraries, common annotations, string processing, I/O, and so forth. On the other hand, JSF is detailed as "It is used for building component-based web interfaces". It is used for building component-based user interfaces for web applications and was formalized as a standard through the Java Community.

guava and JSF can be categorized as "Java" tools.

guava is an open source tool with 33.2K GitHub stars and 7.4K GitHub forks. Here's a link to guava's open source repository on GitHub.

Conceptboard, Zalando, and RELEX Solutions are some of the popular companies that use guava, whereas JSF is used by GameDuell, Universidade CEUMA, and Maps S.A.. guava has a broader approval, being mentioned in 23 company stacks & 84 developers stacks; compared to JSF, which is listed in 13 company stacks and 18 developer stacks.

Java 8 includes features for productivity, ease of use, improved polyglot programming, security and improved performance.
RxJava
A library for composing asynchronous and event-based programs by using observable sequences for the Java VM.
Quarkus
It tailors your application for GraalVM and HotSpot. Amazingly fast boot time, incredibly low RSS memory (not just heap size!) offering near instant scale up and high density memory utilization in container orchestration platforms like Kubernetes. We use a technique we call compile time boot.
Apache FreeMarker
It is a "template engine"; a generic tool to generate text output (anything from HTML to auto generated source code) based on templates. It's a Java package, a class library for Java programmers.
Jackson
It is a suite of data-processing tools for Java (and the JVM platform), including the flagship streaming JSON parser / generator library, matching data-binding library (POJOs to and from JSON) and additional data format modules to process data encoded in Avro, BSON, CBOR, CSV, Smile, (Java) Properties, Protobuf, XML or YAML; and even the large set of data format modules to support data types of widely used data types such as Guava, Joda.
