*...offers a pure ABAP approach for developing UI5 apps, entirely without JavaScript, OData and RAP — similar to the past, when only a few lines of ABAP sufficed to display input forms and tables using Selection Screens & ALVs. Designed with a minimal system footprint, it works in both on-premise and cloud environments.*
#### Key Features
* **100% ABAP:** Developing purely in ABAP (no JavaScript, DDL, EML or Customizing)
* **User-Friendly:** Implement just a single interface for a standalone UI5 application
* **Minimal System Footprint:** Based on a plain HTTP handler (no BSP, OData, CDS, BOPF or RAP)
* **Cloud and On-Premise Ready:** Works with both language versions (ABAP for Cloud, Standard ABAP)
* **Broad System Compatibility:** Runs on all ABAP releases (from NW 7.02 to ABAP 2311)
* **Easy Installation:** abapGit project, no additional app deployment required
#### Compatibility
* BTP ABAP Environment (ABAP for Cloud)
* S/4 Public Cloud ABAP Environment (ABAP for Cloud)
* S/4 Private Cloud or On-Premise (ABAP for Cloud, Standard ABAP)
* R/3 NetWeaver AS ABAP 7.50 or higher (Standard ABAP)
* R/3 NetWeaver AS ABAP 7.02 to 7.42 - use the [downport repository](https://github.com/abap2UI5/abap2UI5-downport)

#### Installation
Install with [abapGit](https://abapgit.org) ![abapGit](https://docs.abapgit.org/img/favicon.png) and set up a new HTTP service with the following handler:
##### Standard ABAP 🏠
```abap
METHOD if_http_extension~handle_request.
DATA(lv_resp) = SWITCH #( server->request->get_method( )
WHEN 'GET' THEN z2ui5_cl_http_handler=>http_get( )
WHEN 'POST' THEN z2ui5_cl_http_handler=>http_post( server->request->get_cdata( ) ) ).
server->response->set_header_field( name = `cache-control` value = `no-cache` ).
server->response->set_cdata( lv_resp ).
server->response->set_status( code = 200 reason = `success` ).
ENDMETHOD.
```
##### ABAP for Cloud :cloud:
<details>
<summary>show code...</summary>
```abap
METHOD if_http_service_extension~handle_request.
DATA(lv_resp) = SWITCH #( request->get_method( )
WHEN 'GET' THEN z2ui5_cl_http_handler=>http_get( )
WHEN 'POST' THEN z2ui5_cl_http_handler=>http_post( request->get_text( ) ) ).
response->set_header_field( i_name = `cache-control` i_value = `no-cache` ).
response->set_text( lv_resp ).
response->set_status( 200 ).
ENDMETHOD.
```
</details>
#### Usage
Implement the abap2UI5 interface as shown in the following example:
```abap
CLASS z2ui5_cl_app_hello_world DEFINITION PUBLIC.
PUBLIC SECTION.
INTERFACES z2ui5_if_app.
DATA quantity TYPE string.
ENDCLASS.
CLASS z2ui5_cl_app_hello_world IMPLEMENTATION.
METHOD z2ui5_if_app~main.
CASE client->get( )-event.
WHEN 'BUTTON_POST'.
client->message_toast_display( |{ quantity } Product ABC - send to the server| ).
ENDCASE.
client->view_display( z2ui5_cl_xml_view=>factory(
)->page( 'abap2UI5 - Hello World App'
)->simple_form( )->content( ns = `form`
)->title( 'Input here and send it to the server...'
)->label( 'Product-ABC'
)->input( client->_bind_edit( quantity )
)->button( text = 'post' press = client->_event( 'BUTTON_POST' )
)->stringify( ) ).
ENDMETHOD.
ENDCLASS.
```

<details>
<summary>show code...</summary>

IF check_initialized = abap_false.
check_initialized = abap_true.
t_tab = VALUE #(

mode = `SingleSelectMaster`
selectionchange = client->_event( 'SELCHANGE' )
)->standard_list_item(
title = '{TITLE}'
description = '{DESCR}'
icon = '{ICON}'
info = '{INFO}'
press = client->_event( 'TEST' )
selected = `{SELECTED}`
).
client->view_display( view->stringify( ) ).
ENDIF.
CASE client->get( )-event.
WHEN 'SELCHANGE'.
DATA(lt_sel) = t_tab.
DELETE lt_sel WHERE selected = abap_false.
client->message_box_display( `go to details for item ` && lt_sel[ 1 ]-title ).
