With the advent of SAP BTP, it was crucial to have a next-generation highly collaborative development environment for business applications which can facilitate accelerated development, support a comprehensive list of tools and smoothen the end-to-end management of application solutioning. Business Application Studio was the answer.

Powered by a web-based IDE, SAP BAS comes with a lot of tools and services, like code editors and a terminal for command line operations, and seamlessly integrates with BTP services. It caters to HANA, CAPM and Fiori development and takes development to the next level with Git integration which has evolved to become an industry standard now. In short, BAS provides an encompassing platform for developers on the BTP platform.

Apart from the convenience of a well-integrated and developer-friendly development platform, BAS is an excellent collaborative platform. As a result, it is used for both front-end and back-end development and has become a preference among the full stack developers.
