I thought it would be worth collecting together a lightly annotated list of Fiori and UI5 public videos that I’ve published on my YouTube channel. (I say public, as there are quite a few OpenUI5 related videos still marked as private, waiting in the wings … watch this space!)

A very quick screencast of an “Icon Finder” app that remembers your own word associations you make, so you can more easily find the icons next time. See Scratching an itch – UI5 Icon Finder for more info.

OpenUI5 MultiComboBox First Look 25 Jul 2014
A first look at the sap.m.MultiComboBox in OpenUI5 version 1.22. Note that the addition of a key for the root element is not entirely necessary (but probably what you might want). I wrote more about this here Keyed vs Non-Keyed Root JSON Elements & UI5 Binding.

The SAP Fiori App Analysis application 30 Jun 2014
A short overview of the SAP Fiori App Analysis app, written itself as a Fiori style app. In this overview I show the source for the information (the SAP help documentation), mention how I convert the gathered spreadsheet data into a more easily consumable form, and explore the app a little bit too.

SublimeUI5 is a package for Sublime Text 2 for developing SAPUI5 / OpenUI5 applications. There are two parts to it – a series of snippets and some basic application templates to help you quickly get started with complete MVC-based running apps. (I don’t maintain this package any more but you’re welcome to take it over!).

Re-presenting my site with SAPUI5 13 Dec 2012
A short demo of an experiment I carried out to explore SAPUI5 and learn more about it. I really like the Shell component as a user interface paradigm and decided to see if I could re-present the content of my home page and weblog using SAPUI5 and specifically the Shell. It seemed to work out OK.

Stupid Firebase and SAPUI5 tricks 14 Apr 2012
Saturday evening hacking around with Firebase, the command line, and an SAPUI5 Data Table. Fairly pointless but interesting nonetheless. Firebase uses websockets for realtime data streaming to your browser-based app, and you can interact with the JSON data with HTTP. Every piece of data has a URL. Now that’s nice.

SAPUI5 and OData 12 Feb 2012
I looked at the data binding support for OData based data sources (such as those exposed by SAP NetWeaver Gateway!) in the (then relatively) new SAPUI5 toolkit. I also wrote this up on SCN: “SAPUI5 says “Hello OData” to NetWeaver Gateway“.
