What this changes

The hero loses its two buttons ("See example apps", "Where it fits"); the headline, the lede and the scene stand on their own, and the header carries the playground button already.

The FAQ is a page of its own at /why/faq/: fifteen questions in five groups (risk and support, where it fits, team and skills, landscape and tooling, performance and users), the groups as the page's second header row. The home page keeps a short teaser at #the-objections, because that id is an address the manual's redirect and the framework's README link to. The header's FAQ entry and the footer point at the page. A test holds the FAQ page to no script and to the questions, and the home page to no question list.

Operating models under Where it runs, in two groups

  • ABAP Cloud (marked; clean core, released APIs only, abap2UI5 passes the checks): SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, SAP BTP ABAP Environment, and S/4HANA Private Cloud or on-premise developing in the ABAP Cloud language version.
  • Standard ABAP: SAP S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition (RISE), SAP S/4HANA on-premise, SAP ECC and NetWeaver 7.02 to 7.5x.
  • Two ways to deploy: on-stack (abap2UI5 where the data and the logic live, calling BAPIs and RAP actions directly) and side-by-side (on a separate ABAP system such as the BTP ABAP Environment, reaching the core over RFC or HTTP).

main is merged in; npm run check passes (10 tests).

Rewrite the page for a reader who gives it three minutes
3e40d6d 
Half the length, proof before the pitch, the downsides next to the
upsides: what a decision maker checks first, in the order they check it.

- Order: use cases, who runs it, where it fits and where it does not,
  governance, cost, platform, AI, FAQ, get started. Add-ons dropped (a
  developer topic, linked), No strings folded into Cost, the week and the
  ways in merged into one closing block.
- Who runs it: "In production" and "Partner" tags instead of ABAP release
  numbers, the figures a reader can check (since December 2022, 25+
  contributors, release 1.148 in October 2026) with their source; the
  five references a manager recognizes first, the other fifteen folded.
- Comparison: three rows where abap2UI5 is not ahead (standard
  transactional apps, offline and real-time, support), a "Where something
  else fits better" box next to the reasons, and no superlative headings.
- Support, as SUPPORT.md states it: community, best effort, no support
  contract on offer today; the FAQ and the cost sheet say so.
- Cost: a five-line sheet (three zeros, developer time, partner services)
  beside the price card; the calculator folds under a summary; the
  giving-back note moves to a short strip before the foot.
- Hero: the grid-table example in the current theme instead of the grey
  walkthrough; the primary action opens the example apps, not the
  playground sandbox.
- Platform in manager terms: no ICF, sy-uname or user exit in the text.
- Mobile: the section links stay as a scrolling row under the header; a
  comparison row becomes a card with the column name on every cell.
- Footer: build date and the contact address.
- Tests: the visible text stays under 2,600 words, the comparison keeps
  its even rows and the support wording, every <td> carries data-th.

Support in the open, and a Try it out button
baaddbc 
Support is an issue or a pull request on GitHub, from anyone, at any
time, and that is the channel to prefer: transparent, and where answers
reach everybody. An organization that needs more writes to the
maintainers. What is not on offer is an SLA in a contract; "no support"
and "best effort" are gone, and the test refuses them.

The header button says Try it out and opens the playground; the hero
keeps the example apps.

A quieter palette for a business reader
c3597e4 
One faint brand wash on the hero and the closing band instead of coral,
sky and mint; the headline accent in solid brand red instead of a red to
orange gradient; the figures in ink with the price as the one accent;
the price card dark instead of an orange gradient; neutral dots on the
window bar; the giving-back strip on the grey band. The brand red stays
for buttons, kickers and one accent per block.

Screenshots from the playground: a sales-orders hero, legible cards
cc69776 
The hero shows the sales-orders app with its Explain This Data panel
open, rendered from the playground at 2x. The eight use-case cards are
re-rendered the same way, cropped to 2:1 and to their content, so the
box shows a filled screen rather than the empty canvas under a short
one; the card box is 2:1, anchored top centre.

Answer the pain points readers voice most
7c7300e 
From a look at what SAP Community, user groups and consultancies name
in 2024 to 2026: a comparison row on time to productivity (an afternoon
against weeks of CDS, RAP and tooling), no training project before the
S/4HANA project and the honest line that developers still learn UI5's
controls, a FAQ on user acceptance after SAP GUI, the example catalogue
in figures, and the skill a team keeps.

Performance: one plain request per click, nothing in the browser
c4617fa 
A comparison row on what a click costs, a reason in "Why teams choose"
and a sharper FAQ answer: no frontend logic, no OData, no app bundle,
the generic shell loaded once, the changed data only.

Join the community, and an open row under Who runs it
fa13eb8 
A section on the open-source side: MIT and no owner who could close
it, help in public, abapGit and abaplint underneath and worth
supporting, add-ons to share, a post on LinkedIn, sponsoring. It
replaces the giving-back strip and joins the navigation.

Who runs it says that many more installations exist than the list
shows, and ends with a dashed "Your company here" card: one row by
pull request or by mail.

The word limit moves to 2,800 for the new section.

Drop the cost calculator, and lighten the price card
cd88f74 
The sheet beside the price says what the calculator said, in five

price card is white with the zero in brand red instead of a dark

Logic in ABAP, security and performance up front; the familiar class
2ec2251 
The hero names the ABAP team, and says what an app is: an ordinary
class in ADT or SE80, checked by ATC, carried by a transport. The
business logic stays in ABAP, next to the data - in the hero, the
tile, a comparison row and the security heading. Performance is named
in the comparison row and the reason that argue it; the governance
section is "Security and governance" and "Security" in the
navigation, and says that nothing of the app runs in the browser.

The word ceiling moves to 4,000 for now: everything goes in first,
the trimming pass comes later.

The header is Home, a Sections menu (a <details>, no script), About,
FAQ and Support, with LinkedIn and the playground on the right. The
About page carries the support ladder (in the open first, more by

the home page keeps a teaser. The canonical address follows the page;
a test holds the about page to no script and resolving links.

The class behind the phone, every device, every operating model
3ddd42c 
The hero shows one ABAP class with the app it produces on a phone in
front of it, composed from the real source and a real render. Under
the use cases, the same app on a phone, a tablet and a desktop, in
frames drawn in CSS around playground renders: one app, no build per
device. Under Where it runs, the three SAP operating models, with the
public cloud marked: clean core is mandatory there and the same class
runs, no rewrite.

A white editor with blue keywords, line numbers and an Eclipse tab,
the real main method of the sales-orders class; the handheld with the

sits on the page rather than in a dark block. The headline runs the
full width above it.

Community & Support in one place, the sections as a second header row…
d282f6f 
…, the FAQ in groups

The header is Home, FAQ, Community & Support, with LinkedIn and the
playground on the right; under it a second row with the sections of
the current page, scrolling sideways on a phone. The dropdown is gone.

The About page becomes Community & Support (/community/) and opens
with the idea: why open source is the right model for a framework on
SAP - no owner, transparent by construction, built with its users,
standing on open shoulders - then the support ladder and what to give
back.

The FAQ is grouped: risk and support, where it fits, team and skills,
landscape and tooling, performance and users. The headline breaks
after "UI5 apps for ABAP,". "Ordinary" gives way to "regular" and
"plain".
