OpenUI5 is a JavaScript application framework designed to build cross-platform business applications. It is an open source project maintained by SAP SE available under the Apache 2.0 license and open to contributions.[1] OpenUI5's core is based on JavaScript, jQuery, and LESS. The library provides MVC architectural patterns with options for selecting different view and model formats.

History

The library was open sourced in December 2013, after being used in production at SAP for several years.[2] In October 2014, the team started accepting contributions via GitHub.[1]

Commercial status

Unlike Dhtmlx, Kendo UI or Webix, and similarly to dōjō toolkit and Ext JS, all OpenUI5 components are completely free, and there are no paid "premium" or "commercial" widgets:

OpenUI5 is best described as a one-stop-shop toolkit. It has everything you need to build web applications, while leaving enough flexibility to extend. And by the way, it's the only one that gives you full functionality for free. While other popular toolkits come as a free trial with paid versions for full functionality, OpenUI5 comes as a complete product by itself – no upsells, no paid premium.[3]
