Contribution

abap2UI5 is an open-source project built by the ABAP community, often in free time or alongside other projects. All kinds of contributions are welcome.

How You Can Contribute

There are several ways to get involved and help:

• Extend the view builder — for example, add a missing property to an existing control
• Add a new UI5 control to the framework so everyone can use it
• Build a custom control for your own specific scenario and share it
• Share your demos and apps to showcase what's possible with abap2UI5
• Improve the documentation and polish code snippets to make abap2UI5 easier to learn
• Propose something new — every contribution is appreciated, no matter the size

Turn Answers into Documentation

The cheapest contribution is one you have already half-made: when a question comes up on Slack or in an issue for the second time, the answer wants to become permanent — an entry in Common Failures when it starts from an error message, a paragraph on the page that should have answered it, or, when a script can decide it, a check that makes the mistake impossible to merge. That is how the whole project works internally — every defect found by hand becomes a rule, a reference example or a gate, so nobody has to discover it twice — and a distilled answer helps every future reader, where a Slack thread helps one.
