Hi Rama,

API Reference gives all the information needed for coding. Namespaces, Classes, Properties, Methods etc.

What ever namespace you need can be browsed and find its related Classes, Methods ,properties etc.

example: I want to create a TextField

I will go to 'sap.ui.commons' and select TextField that shows what are the properties of the Textfield, its aggregations, and related methods etc. Now according to my requirement I code using this API reference.

Please Check this blog for Beginners.

Since SAPUI5 is based on Javascript, I would advise to first and foremost learn how to code Javascript, and in addition how to use the browser's developer tools such as the console, debugger, etc.

There are lots of online resources to learn from, for instance JavaScript | Codecademy

Only then I would start with SAPUI5
