Updated onboarding videos and wizard

If you’re new to SAP Build Apps or want to get more familiar with a feature, the onboarding wizard is the perfect place to start. The in-product videos provide a gamified tour and explanation of essential features while tracking your progress.

We’ve recently added all new onboarding videos to the wizard with updated UI and the ability to display subtitles and transcripts (in English). The wizard also now has a scalable picture-in-picture mode, so you can watch a video while you’re working.
