Editor supportSAP and community
SAP CAP: Best VSCode extensions for TypeScript development (UI5 & NodeJS)SAP CAP: Best VSCode extensions for TypeScript development (UI5 & NodeJS)A working editor setup for CAP with TypeScript, listed extension by extension across the Node.js and UI5 halves. The kind of post that ages by attrition rather than by being wrong — the reasoning about what an editor needs to know about a CDS project outlives any particular extension in the list.published 2024-04-29

Editing a CSV seed file mid-edit restarts the server against half-finished data, and the post is about suppressing that without giving up the watch loop. A small friction most people work around silently rather than fix.published 2024-04-26

ISO content for common CAP typesISO content for common CAP typesThe npm package that supplies ISO-standard content — countries, languages, currencies, timezones — for CAP's common types, and how it works underneath. The author flags the length and the reason for it up front, having followed the mechanism further than the question required, which is what makes it worth reading rather than a package announcement.published 2024-03-14
