A Create, Read, Update, and Destroy (CRUD) application is a simple programming pattern that allows you to read and manage the data in a data source. The IDE provides automatic support for this common programming task by letting you quickly generate a CRUD application from an entity class.

The CRUD application is a web application that uses the JSF framework. An entity class is a class that uses the Java Persistence API to access data in a data source.
