Rapid application development is almost a requirement for business success today. The old model of submitting a requirement and waiting months and even a year for the application is no longer viable.

SAP provides a host of rich development tools today, one of which is the SAP Web IDE. It is a powerful, extensible, web-based integrated development tool that simplifies end-to-end full-stack SAP application development. It is a browser-based integrated development environment (IDE) consisting of integrated parts that interact with each other and with an SAP system.

Rapid application development is almost a requirement for business success today. The old model of submitting a requirement and waiting months and even a year for the application is no longer viable.

SAP provides a host of rich development tools today, one of which is the SAP Web IDE. It is a powerful, extensible, web-based integrated development tool that simplifies end-to-end full-stack SAP application development. It is a browser-based integrated development environment (IDE) consisting of integrated parts that interact with each other and with an SAP system.

The tool is aimed at developers who need a modern and secure environment to create new or extend existing SAP Fiori, SAPUI5, or hybrid applications. Developers can dive right into the code editor without having to spend time configuring and administering the development environment.

Developers are provided with a comprehensive set of tools, including strong code editors with templates, wizards, beautifier capabilities, code completion, code snippets, code validation, code checking, WYSIWYG, and other features.

SAP Web IDE full-stack streamlines the end-to-end application lifecycle. Developers can develop, test, build, deploy, and extend role-based apps for business users rapidly and deliver an outstanding user experience.

Some of the common use cases for developers in SAP Web IDE include:

1. Developing native apps for SAP HANA
2. Building or extending SAP Fiori apps
3. Create new Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions that connect to SAP HANA and other SAP solutions
4. Extend SAP S/4HANA cloud services
5. Develop hybrid mobile applications
6. Build Internet of Things (IoT) apps for SAP Leonardo
7. Use the UI development toolkit for HTML5 (SAPUI5) for desktop and mobile devices
8. Develop in Java programming language and technologies

SAP Web IDE full-stack runs on the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP). It needs no installation and easily integrates with other services that run on the platform, such as SAP Fiori Cloud apps, Git integration, mobile services, IoT services, and more.

Vendors that help SAP customers with SAP Web IDE include: AWS, Red Hat, Boomi, ServiceNow, and SUSE.
