The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed belong solely to the author, and not necessarily to the author's employer, organization, committee or other group or individual.

In my previous post, Automating VBCS Documentation with AI – A Node.js CLI Tool,
I walked through a command-line utility built to generate documentation for Oracle VBCS applications using AI.

That tool proved one thing very clearly:

AI can dramatically reduce the effort required to document VBCS applications.

But it also revealed something else.

Not everyone wants to live in the terminal.

So the next step was obvious.

Why Build a Web UI?

The CLI tool worked well for developers comfortable with Node.js and terminals.
But for broader adoption a visual interface makes a big difference.

What the Web UI Does

The Web UI wraps the original documentation engine and allows you to:

  • Upload or reference a VBCS export

  • Trigger documentation generation visually

  • Automatically extract and document:

    • Pages

    • Business Objects

    • Service Connections

    • Action Chains

    • JS Functions

    • Navigation

  • Use AI summaries to make metadata readable and human-friendly

  • View the generated documentation structure clearly
