In this tutorial we'll introduce you to all major development paradigms of OpenUI5. We'll demonstrate the use of TypeScript with OpenUI5 and highlight the specific characteristics of this approach.
We first introduce you to the basic development paradigms like Model-View-Controller and establish a best-practice structure of our application. We'll do this along the classic example of βHello Worldβ and start a new app from scratch. Next, we'll introduce the fundamental data binding concepts of OpenUI5 and extend our app to show a list of invoices. We'll continue to add more functionality by adding navigation, extending controls, and making our app responsive. We'll also have look at the testing features and the built-in support tools of OpenUI5.

The project uses npm workspaces and requires a Node.js version >= 20.11.0
to be installed.
The project is setup as monorepo. All steps are located inside the steps
folder and labelled with their step number. The monorepo uses npm
workspaces to manage all steps together. But you can also run npm
inside each individual step.
To setup the monorepo you first need to install all depenedencies:
npm install
To run any step, just execute one of the scripts from package.json
via npm, e.g.:
# Option 1: use workspace command to start the step
npm start -w ui5.walkthrough.step01
# Option 2: change to the folder of the step and start it
cd steps/01
npm start
