HTML and XML TemplatingLocate this document in the navigation structure

SAPUI5 supports HTML templating and XML templating.

The HTML templating concept enables you to bind texts against properties in the model.

XML templating uses an XML view as a template.


In this section:
    HTML Templating
    To build semantic HTML templates, SAPUI5 uses handlebars. You can either use standard expressions and helpers together for the context of a template instance, or you can use the custom helpers for handlebars provided by SAPUI5, which you can use together with the SAPUI5 models.
    XML Templating
    The XML templating concept enables you to use an XML view as a template. This template is transformed by an XML preprocessor on the source level, the XML DOM, at runtime just before an SAPUI5 control tree is created from the XML source.
