In this blog, we will look at how to set-up the development environment before starting development of your applications.

 

• We will be requiring eclipse luna IDE(Integrated Development Environment) which can be downloaded from here, you have to select the flavor(32/64bit) of the IDE as per your system configuration which can be found out by right clicking the My Computer and going to properties.You may also use sublime-text(free) and cloud9 ide(quick app development).
• Make sure that Java is already installed on your machine because eclipse required Java to run.If it is not installed just install it from here.
• Now we will see the UI5 tools repository URL which will be required to enter in eclipse as the steps given below to install all the required libraries to make available within eclipse.
• Now click on Help –>Install New Software. As per the eclipse version(Mars/Luna) you have installed,choose the URL to be copied from here .Then paste it inside Install New Software.
• After this, you will see a list of components asking for installation,but as we are focussing on UI5 so select the same from the last down(UI Development Toolkit for HTML5).Go ahead and press Next, accept all the license agreements.Then finally it will install the software within few minutes.

Now you have successfully setup your development environment …Yepi !

Stay tuned for more posts ahead !
