abap2UI5 introduces here the first a small shift: what if the server now also delivers the xml view? The frontend becomes a passive display layer for views and data received from the server:
Although the frontend still renders HTML, all relevant information (view and data) is obtained from the backend via AJAX. The UI5 application technically remains an SPA but now functions solely as a rendering layer for the server-defined UI and Data:

The frontend is unaware of the current view (e.g., table, list, input) or the next actions. All logic is handled on the backend. The frontend app is a static UI5 application delivered with the first request:
The app renders the provided view and data, then returns any triggered events to the backend, which decides what should happen next. This process resembles the classical PAI/PBO model from SAP GUI applications:
Communication relies on AJAX roundtrips akin to HTML Over the Wire, but pure HTML cannot be sent since UI5 still requires XML views and JSON models. abap2UI5 leverages UI5's capability to render HTML from these constructs. This results in a model referred to as _UI5-XML-View Over-the-Wire_
