I'm searching for a way to create a sort of inline help / guided walkthrough tour to explain certain elements/sections displayed on an SAPUI5 apps. I was checking examples, e.g. intro.js and others (https://ourcodeworld.com/articles/read/328/top-10-best-tour-website-guide-javascript-and-jquery-plugins). How would this work with xml views? Anyone has an idea or can point me to a resource? thx
The UI5Lab community has a custom library for guided tours, see here.
This library uses UI5 controls, so you could either use this library for your project or check the source code for some ideas on how to implement a UI5 native tour yourself.

Recently I was reading an article about "Browser Internals" and suddenly this idea struck me.
What if I create my own Browser?
So, I have two questions with me.
Question 1:
Is it possible to integrate an Open source Web Engine like "Servo" or "WebKit" to my custom Browser UI interface created using QtCreator or Visual Studio?
Question 2:
Is there any other components that needs to be inserted between the UI created using C++(QtCreator) and Servo or WebKit?
Note:
I am a complete beginner to this field and these questions were asked in a curiosity to learn internal stuff. Pardon if the Questions were not standard.
Thanks :)
Answer 1:
Yes, it is possible. Browser engines have public APIs to provide a way to embed them. For example, the goal of this little project was to present how to build up your own UI interface (using Aura) and wire Chromium (browser engine) into that.

Answer 2:
If you prefer Qt technologies, then QtWebEngine will be the solution. The intent of this module is exactly what you have described: to embed Chromium engine into Qt applications with hiding its most painful parts and provide convenient API to customise your browser application.
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwebengine-overview.html
And there are several others:
QtWebKit: http://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-5.5/qtwebkit-index.html
CEF: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_Embedded_Framework
You don't necessarily have to use extra layers between your application and a browser engine, but if you are a complete beginner, I would highly recommend that.
Actually we have developed on application with sapui5 for our customer but the problem is that some new customer dont want to go through License agrement with sapui5. So the solution we have found to make our application with openui5.
My question is that
"Is there any possibility to make application with both of them and at the time of installation making a decision either going and make resources of sapui5 or openui5"?
Thank you
Nimi
As long as you understand that certain features will only be available in SAPUI5 you can load the version of sap-ui-core.js that comes with either in your bootstrap index.html page.
For example, if using CDN, for OpenUI5 link to https://openui5.hana.ondemand.com/resources/sap-ui-core.js and for SAPUI5 use https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/resources/sap-ui-core.js
See this link to read about differences between SAPUI5 and OpenUI5.
Also see this link for another discussion of the differences.
I know that this post (I'm linking to) is not so much updated but it will give you a good overview and history about SAPUI5/OpenUI5 and all the differences.
Anyway, SAPUI5 is a superset of OpenUI5 with some addictional control (like VizChart or FilterBar.
I think that in 90% of cases you can just go with OpenUI5 and use other opensource libraries / develop custom control if you need something that is missing.
I am trying to use a sap.m.List Control in a application, however, I am struggling to find examples of how to implement this control in a JavaScript View. I am aware that the "Explored" app has code examples to implement the controls in XML views; However, I would like to know how to adapt those examples to HTML, JSON and JavaScript views. What an expert UI5 Developer does when he needs to adapt a control from a XML View to another type of view? Do we have any guidelines? Thanks in advance!
Regarding the guidelines you`ll find at least a quick introduction on js-views in the demokit documentation here.
I created a pretty simple example for the sap.m.List in javascript here although I am aware that it is not part of a view, but it should give you a first impression.
If you are looking for more js examples have a look here. For the older sap.ui.commons controls all samples are created with javascript.
I am an Android newbie and I really require your help.
I'd like to develop an app , which its UI is persisted of three Tabs, and the first one a WebView.
since I am not familiar with all the required building blocks, can anyone give me a sample? a guide how to do so?
thanks a lot!
The Android API Demos include several (Tabs1 to Tabs2 sample files) examples. Install, try and have a look at them.
Regarding specifying the content of Tabs you have the possibilities to use Views or Activities. If you check some "Tab" related discussion here you will find that established users prefer to use Views (e.g. here). I took the 'Activity' way so far and feel quite comfortable - but did not go to deep into pros and cons. My current point of view is that you have to decide on each special case and can't give a general recommendation.
there is some tutorials on this page : http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/index.html
I'm assigned with new task for creating chart application in iphone like.,(BarChart,PieChart,etc..,).But,i have no idea for chart application in iphone.Please anyone help me out to guide me to start chart application in iphone.If any of the frameworks or API used for this kind of chart application means please explain that also.
Give a shot to:
Core-Plot Framework
To get it working, read here.
You can also see the accepted answer of this SO question.
For a little bar-chart tutorial go here.
There is also:
s7graphview less features but It's an option.
If you can rely on the web, although it's a far from optimal solution, you can embed a UIWebView in your application, and use the Google Graph Visualization API or you can use a UIWebView with an HTML5 graph library lake rgraph. Look here for a jQuery based solution. Filament Group made also this one.
At the and some sample code from Apple (Accelerometer Graph).
A commonly used Cocoa "native" charting library is core-plot. Whilst I've yet to personally use it, it seems to be quite popular and is under active development.
Here you go, but next time please use the search function first:

A popular one is core plot. http://code.google.com/p/core-plot/
