Dev spaces are like isolated virtual machines in the cloud that can be instantly spin-up. Each dev space type contains tailored tools and pre-installed run-times for a target scenario such as SAP Fiori or mobile development. This simplifies and saves time in setting up the development environment as there’s no need to install anything or upgrade, letting developers focus on their business domain, anytime, anywhere.
Step 1: Open SAP Business Application Studio

Go to your Cloud Foundry environment subaccount and click the Subscriptions tab.

Step 3: Open the SAP Fiori dev space
Click the name of the dev space you created.
