SAP Build Code

Starting a CAP or SAPUI5 application on BTP means putting together an editor, templates, the services the application uses and a way to deploy it. SAP Build Code brings design time, application services, runtime services and tools together in one offering for SAPUI5, SAP Fiori, mobile and CAP applications running on the SAP BTP, Cloud Foundry RuntimeSAP BTP, Cloud Foundry RuntimeThe Cloud Foundry runtime of SAP BTP: memory for applications in a Cloud Foundry org, run from SAP's Java, Node.js and Python buildpacks or community buildpacks and managed with the standard Cloud Foundry tools.sap official, btp.

Full-stack CAP work has visual modelling tools and code editors integrated with Git and CI/CD, front ends start from application templates, and native apps are built with the SAP BTP SDKs for Android and iOS or as metadata-based apps. The free plan is for evaluating the design-time features, with restrictions.

- Extending SAP Autonomous SuiteExtending SAP Autonomous SuiteExtensibility across SAP Autonomous Suite: AI-enabled development in SAP Build solutions, the ABAP Cloud model among them, as the way extensions are designed, generated and deployed, and a direction for making extensions ready for agentic AI. The abstract names the suite, SAP Build and the ABAP Cloud model and no single feature, so the edges are to Extensibility, the concern, and to SAP Build Code, the SAP Build solution held here in which Joule generates and deploys development; which other SAP Build solutions the session shows is not stated.
