Tools Available For Designing Sap Fiori App

Fiori Apps Implementation

In today's fast-paced world, the way we work with software has transformed considerably. There is a constant need for speed and the innovations of Apple, Facebook and Google have massively raised the standard for user experience for business software.

Organizations are looking to quickly mobilize and simplify SAP for their field users, managers and executives while leveraging their existing SAP investments.

SAP® Fiori is a set of applications that provide immediate impact by renewing the user experience of the most broadly and commonly used SAP software functions. SAP® Fiori is extremely simple to use, available everywhere as it runs on all devices and seamlessly implementable. A custom Fiori app is an app that is created using the same technologies as SAP Fiori apps and one that follows SAP Fiori design guidelines. Here are some of the highlights of SAP® Fiori.

Customers can develop customized Fiori apps when an out of the box Fiori app doesn't meet your business requirements (including possibilities of extensions, additional fields and branding etc.), your backend processes are highly custom or your business processes require users to interact with multiple channels and platforms such as emails, SharePoint, internal apps, social media etc.

By combining the Design Thinking framework with Fiori Cloud, we can easily build custom Fiori/UX apps. These apps can be quickly mobilized using SAP Cloud Platform Mobile Services. (A fully featured and secure mobile platform in the cloud that leverages ODATA with offline capabilities and integration with location aware technologies and social media). Fiori Mobile takes the mobile enablement of Fiori UX to the next level by providing a faster approach for mobilizing Fiori.

In addition, the tools available within the SAP Cloud Platform such as SAP WebIDE make the app development & maintenance significantly simple. SAP WebIDE is the recommended toolset for extending and creating Fiori applications. The pre-built template gallery and layout editor features of WebIDE simplify the app development process. In addition, the Web IDE HAT (A plug-in for WebIDE-hybrid application toolkit) simplifies the development of mobile hybrid apps and provides integrated deployment to the SAP Cloud Platform Mobile Service.
