Overwhelmed with the options for building mobile apps with SAPUI5? This guide offers a comprehensive introduction to SAP UI5 mobile apps in Eclipse, SAP Cloud Platform, and Microsoft Visual Studio. Explore how to build business and data-driven applications using different platforms to deploy hybrid applications to multiple devices.

Examine the advantages of development in an Eclipse environment, along with how to leverage SAP Mobile SDK and the SAP Gateway. By using detailed examples, tips, and screenshots, the author brings readers quickly up to speed on the fundamentals of building mobile apps:
SAPUI5 is the focus of app development, but there is also an option to use OpenUI5. This is available for everyone, whereas SAPUI5 is available to developers using platforms that support SAP customers. The majority of the controls are available in both environments, with the exception of new editions which are usually featured in the SAPUI5 Development Toolkit for HTML5 (see Chapter 10).
OpenUI5
This is an open source JavaScript library for building enterprise applications. The open source environment provides a software development kit (SDK) for development needs.
SAPUI5 is very flexible because it can be used with Eclipse, SAP Cloud Platform and Visual Studio, along with many other development options. Table 2.1 lists the libraries supported for SAPUI5. The sap.m library is used in this book because it contains the necessary controls for mobile app development. Mobile apps also use sap.ui for user experience and standard controls.
| sap.ui.comp | sap.m | sap.table |
| sap.ca | sap.me | sap.ushell |
| sap.uxap | sap.gantt | sap.ui.core |
| sap.ui.layout | sap.ui.unified | sap.ui.table |
| sap.viz |
Table 2.1: SAPUI5 libraries
The namespace sap.m is used for mobile devices and desktops. A list of all available controls is located under the API Reference tab in the SAPUI5 Development Toolkit.
