Can I add some sections into my MDK Project

[mark135780309]

Hi there,

Could you tell me how to create a new Fiori section when I want to classify it into some groups according to the Fiori application pages that I made in the MDK project?

I found some articles that can help me set up some details while using S/4HANA, but now I'm using SAP Business App Studio to develop a new project.

Can any ideas or links help me develop it using sections, like the tiles in the yellow fields?

Thanks for your response.

I'm not entirely clear on what you are asking here. Can you please elaborate? Are you trying to create a launchpad like page in MDK?

@bill_froelich OK, I think I misunderstood you. I want an index like Launchpad, which includes the titles (perhaps it also means sections) of the tiles.

An MDK application isn't really structured the same way. There isn't a direct mapping of the concepts you mention in the diagram where you have a launchpad of different applications.  An MDK application is a single app just like the other apps on your mobile device.  You could develop the application to contain different functional areas very similar to the different apps you list in your diagram but they would be all contained within the one MDK application.  You could also create individual MDK applications for each tile and install them all on the mobile device and organize them using folders at the OS home screen level.

in MDK, one option would be to create a Page with multiple Image Collection sections to get a similar design (without the nav drop downs).  It would be similar to the launchpad and each item could navigate to the appropriate function within the MDK application.

Thank you for your response. If I want to present a screen like this (the tiles on the homepage contain categories), what kind of project should I start (for example: Fiori Apps, CAPM)

If you are building an MDK application you would using the SAP Mobile Application dev space type and then create your MDK application using the MDK App template as the starting point.

I would also suggest you take a look at the MDK tutorials to also help you get started.
