In the age of AI-assisted development and Clean Core, are we losing sight of the fundamentals? With automation accelerating and custom code under scrutiny, what’s the role of deep technical experience — and who’s mentoring the next generation?This session makes the case for why coding still matters, especially in SAP environments. We’ll explore how poor architecture and neglected technical mentorship can silently derail Clean Core ambitions, and why “just enough code” still needs to be the right code.You'll learn how software architecture principles can thrive (not disappear) in Clean Core landscapes — and why developers, both senior and junior, are essential to getting it right. If you’ve ever questioned your place in today’s SAP dev ecosystem, or how to build solutions that last, this session is for you.Key Takeaways:- Understand how poor code quality and neglected architecture slow down delivery — even in low-code/AI-assisted environments.- See how pragmatic software architecture supports Clean Core principles, rather than blocks them.- Learn tried-and-tested patterns that help developers deliver resilient, sustainable solutions within SAP’s modern dev stack.
