Hi Everyone.

Can someone provide me the steps how to develop the SAPUI5 apps in VS Code or Eclipse? I am working on WEBIDE right now.

Definitely favor VSCode over Eclipse. SAPUI5 toolkit for Eclipse will be deprecated soon. And the newly introduced SAP Business Application Studio is based on Eclipse Theia which is basically a copy of VSCode in terms of developer experience.

For local developments in SAPUI5 using Visual Studio Code, recommend you to take a look in Easy-ui5 project. I have been using and Its very useful. This generator is also included in SAP Business Application Studio.

Other project very useful to local development is the UI Tooling, I also have been using in my developments. This project is also included in SAP Business Application Studio for on Cloud Developments.
