32. A Beginner’s Guide to Microsoft PowerApps
PowerApps is, fundamentally, a
development platform for mobile
and web apps. It allows “citizen
developers” to reach capabilities
that were once only reserved for
high-end development tools.
What’s more, PowerApps is
generally quite easy to learn. You
can use it to swiftly take charge of
your destiny as long as you make the
correct decisions when it comes to
structuring. Follow this guide to help
avoid any nasty surprises.
