I Killed Fiori (And I’d Do It Again)

Or: How TRIZ Taught Me The Best UI Is No UI

Hey SAP folks! 👋

Deep breath.

I have a confession: I killed Fiori. Not in one system — in all of them. Before you grab your pitchforks, hear me out.

I loved Fiori when it launched in 2013. Finally, SAP that didn’t look like Windows 95! Responsive design! Tiles! But it’s 2025, and we’re still… clicking… through… tiles… to… do… everything.

After working with Fiori since 2015, I had an epiphany that would make any TRIZ (innovation theory) person weep with joy:

“The ideal system is one that doesn’t exist but its function is performed.”
