UI5ers live
UI5ers live is an online series to promote an intensive interaction within our UI5 community. Once a month, the UI5 team opens up the line for 45 minutes to discuss the latest UI5 features, inform about topics they are currently working on, and exchange views and ideas around UI5. Everybody is invited to get involved and can submit topics for upcoming episodes. Send us your ideas via e-mail and we will get back to you. Or give us a shout in the UI5ers_live channel on OpenUI5 Slack and we can discuss it together.
The episodes are broadcast every second Thursday of a month at 15:15 German time and everybody can join without further action. All episodes will be recorded and published on the OpenUI5 YouTube channel afterwards.

Dec 4, 2025 15:15 CET | Join us for a special year-end edition of UI5ers live! Instead of our usual format with set topics, we’re turning the microphone over to you for a community-driven “Ask Us Anything” session. This is your opportunity to engage directly with us and shape the conversation. We invite you to submit your questions in advance via e-mail or any of our social media channels. Of course, you’ll also be able to ask questions live during the session itself. To make the discussion as valuable as possible for everyone, we’re particularly interested in questions about: - The future direction of UI5 and our roadmap. - Architectural concepts and the reasoning behind design decisions. - Constructive feedback—what you like, what you dislike, and the “why” behind it. We’re ready to listen and discuss. The goal is to have an open and honest conversation about the framework. Please note that this session isn’t the channel for individual bug reports or specific “how-to” questions, but rather for broader topics that benefit the entire community. We look forward to a great discussion and hearing directly from you! | |
Nov 13, 2025 15:15 CET | In this episode, we'll be joined by community member Mario Kernich, who will introduce his UI5 FontAwesome Library. He'll show how this custom UI5 library integrates hundreds of FontAwesome icons directly into your applications. You'll see how to use them via sap.ui.core.Icon, with support for Solid, Regular, and Brands styles, and without needing any additional font installations. Mario will also demonstrate his work to extend the UI5 Icon Explorer, making it possible to browse and search these new icons. The session will also explore how Joule, the coding assistant in SAP Build Code, can now generate new, best-practice UI5 applications based on a simple request. Andreas Kunz will provide a live demonstration, share insights and learnings from the implementation process, and discuss the interesting concept of turning a plain Large Language Model (LLM) into an agent by metaphorically 'treating it like a human'. |
UI5con
UI5con is a community-driven event to connect all the UI5 users and fans out there - a common platform to get to know each other, discuss innovations and find solutions. The event is organized by the community, usually free of charge and very informal: Everyone interested in UI5 and its related projects is welcome!
Once a year, the UI5 team itself acts also as host and takes over the organization of a one day event in St. Leon-Rot/Germany packed with lectures, talks, hands-on sessions, and networking opportunities for around 400 attendees.
