Frontend

The abap2UI5 frontend artifacts live in the app folder. To adjust them:

Setup

Open VS Code (or your editor of choice), then run in the terminal:

sh
git clone https://github.com/abap2UI5/abap2UI5
cd abap2UI5/app

Next replace <<system>> in the three config files — ui5.yaml, ui5-local.yaml and ui5-mock.yaml — so they all point to your ABAP backend system:

Frontend config files where the backend system URL must be replaced

Build & Test

If your HTTP service uses a different path, also replace /sap/bc/z2ui5 with your endpoint in the manifest. Then run:

sh
npm i
npm run start-noflp

You'll see output like this: npm run start-noflp output showing the local dev server running

Before PR (Optional)

Convert the UI5 app to stringified ABAP:

sh
cd ..
npm run auto_app2abap
