The SAP HTML5 UI development toolkit supports app developers in creating rich and quick UIs based on SAP jQuery and HTML5. jQuery based web components can be used both as standalone or integrated applications on the Netweaver portal. SAPUI5 is the incarnation of this revolutionary development tool, an enterprise ready HTML5 library for client-side user interface programming, supporting all existing SAP product standards while also being flexible and open. It provides extensible controls that are easy to use integrating seamlessly with 3rd party JavaScript libraries and running on a multitude of devices and on several server platforms, providing and endless stream of benefits for clients and developers alike.

With HTML5 being the future of the web, especially as far as the mobile web is concerned, the next generation of the most common web language has been enhanced with support for rich web content such as additional semantic elements, interactive graphics, streaming content, an offline cache and scalable vector graphics. It has become increasingly more skewed towards being a user interface design platform and it has developed into a working alternative to the proprietary platforms commonly used. This opens up a whole new world for SAP HTML5 web interface design, for delivering content to mobile users mainly through the use of SAP jQuery and other such libraries has never been easier and more accessible to both SAP savvy developers and clients versed in html5 and css3 that are now able to collaborate on projects using the Netweaver Gateway.
