In the past few months I participated in a massive open online learning course”, or “MOOC” of openSAP. openSAP is an initiative that provides (free!) courses for anyone who wants to learn something about the ERP system SAP. They provide these MOOCs, which are given by SAP professionals from around the world, and anyone can participate!
From march until may they provided a course called “Build Your Own SAP Fiori App in the Cloud”. In this course they dived into building a Fiori app. Fiori provides users with a responsive webapp that connects to SAP back-end systems. For more information you could check out this link.
Part of this course was a design challenge. They asked every participant of the course to build their own app, according to the UX design principles. Of the 18.000 participants of this course, more than 1.500 people completed and submitted an app.
Here’s the kicker. My app was chosen as one of the three best submissions! Check out all the apps here: Fiori Design Challenge Apps. My app is the Football Team App!
