Add `npm run start:launchpad`: boots the CAP server and serves all test
apps behind a Fiori Launchpad in a single process, from source with live
reload via `CDS_PLUGIN_UI5_MODULES={}`. The committed dist config used by
the Docker live demo stays untouched.
- root/examples/server: start:launchpad script chain (mirrors start:server)
- server: add cross-env devDependency for cross-platform env vars
- docs: document the flow in Development/GettingStarted.md

What
Adds a one-command dev flow that boots the CAP server and serves all the main test apps behind a Fiori Launchpad in a single process — no separate
fiori runterminals/ports:Auto-opens http://localhost:4004/launchpad.html. Apps are served from source with live reload.
Why
The launchpad infra (
cds-plugin-ui5+cds-launchpad-plugin) already existed, but only as the dist-based Docker live demo. This makes it usable for everyday local development of all apps at once, instead of starting the CAP server and each UI5 app separately.How
start:launchpadscript chain (root → examples → server), mirroring the existingstart:server.CDS_PLUGIN_UI5_MODULES={}, which fully replaces the committedcds-plugin-ui5.modulesconfig so every app falls back to its sourceui5.yaml(live reload) instead ofui5-dist.yaml. The Docker/live-demo dist path is untouched.cross-envdevDependency for cross-platform env-var handling (lockfile change is limited tocross-env).docs/pages/Development/GettingStarted.md.Apps shown:
ordersv2fe,ordersv4fe,ordersv4freestyle,anyupload(those that are server devDependencies and havecrossNavigation.inboundsin their manifest). The wdi5 tests are unaffected — they still launch each app standalone on its own port.Verification
Booted locally against the latest
main: all 4 apps mount from source, the launchpad generates 7 tiles (4 apps + 3 links), and both V4 and V2 (cov2ap) OData services respond.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
