You learned about the evolution of Power Apps and its relationship with Microsoft Power Platform and Dataverse, in the previous chapters. In this chapter, Iâll go into more depth about Power Apps.
Introduction to Power Apps
Power Apps is a component of the Power Platform family that is used to create responsive business apps for the web, mobile devices, and tablets. Using Power Apps, you can connect to the business data that is either stored in Microsoft Dataverse or a variety of other online or on-premises external databases, such as SharePoint, Azure SQL, Oracle, Microsoft Excel, SQL Server, etc.
Depending on your business needs, Power Apps can either be created using ready-made templates offered by Microsoft or from scratch using a blank canvas. It offers a wide range of functionality, including drag and drop controls and custom code components, to allow everyone to design the app, regardless of programming experience.
Early on, if you wanted to design any apps for your clients, you needed developers or a technical specialist on the team. And it used to take months or even years to make it available to live users. Yet, with todayâs more sophisticated and digitalized technology, every client wants to accelerate the development of the app so they can use it as soon as possible. Using the relatively new capabilities of Figma to App and Copilot in Power Apps, users can create apps in a matter of seconds. Iâll discuss these in Chapter 11.
With Power Apps, everyone in your team can participate in app development instead of waiting for experienced developers to start. Imagine, you are working as a non-technical employee in a company where technical product knowledge is not required, and you have never written any code. Although you spend most of your workplace time using Microsoft PowerPoint and Excel to create business proposals, data tracking, estimation, request for proposals (RFP) and slide deck for the clientâs presentation. Yet, you are still able to create a business application with Power Apps.
