How to Use NPM Modules Like crypto-js in SAPUI5 Using UI5 Tooling ModulespublishedWalks through adding ui5-tooling-modulesui5-tooling-modulesA set of UI5 tooling extensions that load and convert plain npm packages into UI5 AMD-like modules, so the UI5 module loader can consume them.community org, ui5 to a SAPUI5 project on UI5 Tooling v3: installing the npm package crypto-js alongside it, then wiring a
ui5-tooling-modules-task builder task and a ui5-tooling-modules-middleware dev-server middleware into ui5.yaml so the UI5 module loader can resolve it. A controller then loads crypto-js/sha256 through sap.ui.define and calls it like any other AMD dependency, with the stated limit that the pattern works only inside a controller or other AMD-style module, not through a top-level import or require().Build and dev-server toolingSat 24

Using the UI5 Mockserver for Client-Specific Data and TestingpublishedWalks through a same-day feature in
@sap-ux/ui5-middleware-fe-mockserver, 'Support autoloading mockdata file for specific tenants', which loads a <Entity>-<client>.json file keyed to the sap-client URL parameter and falls back to the entity's plain JSON file when no client-specific one exists. Shows the setup replacing generated mock data with hand-written JSON, then drives the same sap-client parameter through separate package.json scripts so wdi5wdio-ui5-serviceEnd-to-end testing for UI5 as a WebdriverIO service that drives a real browser through UI5's own test API, so a test addresses controls with OPA5-compatible selectors rather than DOM nodes.community org, ui5 end-to-end tests can run against distinct tenant datasets.Seed dataMon 19
UI5 Views, Reimagined: Type-Safe TSX for a Modern Dev ExperiencepublishedA Devtoberfest 2026 session on @ui5-community/jsx-runtime@ui5-community/jsx-runtimeA plugin-based JSX runtime for UI5: views are written as .tsx files with per-control typing, and the JSX compiles to plain new Control(settings) calls.community org, ui5, the incubation project that lets a UI5 view be written as TSX: XML-like markup that the TypeScript compiler checks against the control's own types and a Babel plugin turns into the constructor calls UI5 already makes. The edge to the runtime rests on the session's own description, which gives the project's documentation site as the session's documentation. The TypeScript supportTypeScript supportWriting apps and libraries in TypeScript — the type definitions, the module syntax the loader expects, and the build step that gets from one to the other.SAP and community, narrow by design edge holds because that is the session's subject — per-property checking, completion on every attribute, renames that carry through a view, and typed event objects that remove the casts — alongside what stays unchanged: string and expression bindings, controllers, routing and i18n, and XML views living beside TSX ones in the same app. The build edge rests on the setup, where ui5-tooling-transpileui5-tooling-transpileA UI5 CLI extension that transpiles modern JavaScript or TypeScript during the UI5 build, with a transformJSX option that handles JSX and TSX in the same step.community org, ui5 is given the JSX transform in ui5.yaml; the walkthrough then builds a bookshop app on a CAP OData service and names what is still missing, UI flexibility and native HTML among it.TypeScript support
