UI5-TypeScript
UI5-TypeScript is an npm mono-repo that contains tooling to support TypeScript in SAP UI5 Projects. These tooling can enable:
- Better IDE integration for SAP UI5 projects (e.g content assist).
- Using TypeScript compiler to perform type checks on SAP UI5 applications.
- More easily implementing UI5 applications in TypeScript thus enjoying the general benefits of TypeScript.

It currently contains a single public package:
-
@ui5/dts-generator A low level compiler which transforms SAP UI5 api.json format to TypeScript definition(dts) file format.
How to obtain the UI5 TypeScript signatures?
The UI5 type signatures generated by the @ui5/dts-generator are created and published as part of the UI5 build process.
With npm:
npm install @sapui5/ts-types --save-dev
With Yarn
yarn add @sapui5/ts-types --dev
See the demos directory for consumption examples of said signatures.
