generator-ui5-flp-plugin

A generator, built on the official UI5 tooling, that scaffolds a Fiori Launchpad plugin component with sample shell extension code and an Opa5 test, as a plug-in for Easy-UI5.

Building a Fiori Launchpad plugin from scratch means wiring up the plugin component, shell extension hooks and a test harness by hand. This generator, run through Easy-UI5 as yo easy-ui5 flp-plugin or standalone as yo ./generator-ui5-project, scaffolds all three: a Fiori Launchpad plugin component, sample shell extension code, and an Opa5 test already wired in.
