Ui5

If you work with SAP Fiori Elements, you have probably run into this problem before: it is hard to see in which UI5 version a specific feature was introduced. Bjorn Schulz already built a strong matrix for ABAP: ABAP Feature Matrix. For Fiori Elements and RAP/CAP, there was no comparable matrix yet. So I created an Influence request to close this gap: influence.sap.com/sap/ino/#idea/351729 The new Developer Portal would be a great home for a matrix like this but so far, there still is no official version. The closest alternative is the SAP Fiori Elements Feature Map in the SAPUI5 documentation. ...

If you are searching for SAP MCP Servers (Model Context Protocol), you quickly run into the same problem: Which SAP MCP servers exist (official and community), and what other SAP AI tooling should you know about? That is why I like this new repo: marianfoo/sap-ai-mcp-servers: SAP MCP Servers and SAP AI Skills list It is a curated list of SAP MCP servers, SAP AI skills, and adjacent developer tools. The README is structured as tables so you can scan by category, compare licenses, and see what is actively maintained. ...

AI assistants already help a lot, but they work best when you can give them good context. In web apps, the most important context is usually the real traffic between frontend and backend: request URLs, payloads, and responses. When debugging, I want to copy that information quickly and completely. And since I mostly work with UI5 and OData, I usually need the full URL plus request and response body. In Chrome DevTools that often means a lot of manuall copy pasting, and if you need more than one request, it gets annoying fast. ...

I was recently asked how my UI5 Versions Bot on Bluesky works. So I want to simply explain how it works and how I use an RSS feed as a small “microservice” so I can base other services on this data. How the ui5-lib-diff project works The ui5-lib-diff project pulls data from official UI5 sources (SAPUI5/OpenUI5) and turns it into structured change data. That data is then used to generate an RSS feed entry for each patch update in both SAPUI5 and OpenUI5. ...
