UI5 NewsCast

Data binding in UI5 is the synchronization between the model and the view. But how does this work exactly and which features related to data binding does UI5 provide out of the box? To get the bottom of this, Christoph Haffner invited Patric Ksinsik, developer architect working for the UI5 models team, to his studio. Patric walks us through the basics, but also talks about the particularities of data binding in UI5, best practices as well as hidden gems. There are plenty of features to discover!

This episode is a new edition of the second UI5 NewsCast episode on data binding, which was at that time still in German. This new edition is in English and also covers some topics. So give it a listen and tune in to learn about data binding in UI5 from scratch!
