In this ever-changing connected world, more and more organisations are enjoying the benefits of working on the move. We can work from just about anywhere that has a wi-fi connection. Gone are the days when we would need to come into the office each day to do our daily tasks or attend meetings.
With the advent of Office 365 we can now work remotely and collaborate with other office colleagues without the need to actually be in the office.
Technology is always changing and moving on. Windows desktop apps have been all the rage for many years. Then things started to evolve as web apps became popular. Now we are going through a new stage whereby mobile apps are the new norm. The whole world is using smart phones for a variety of things.
Historically mobile apps have been difficult to create and there is no real development platform that has taken off. Microsoft have addressed this issue with Power Apps and have made things a lot easier. The result is a platform that allows you to create apps with no code. That said, if you want to do something a little more advanced, they have given the option to write code. It is not the kind of code you imagine though. Reams and reams of complicated, confusing statements are not something you will see in Power Apps.
In this book I will cover the basics of Power Apps so that you will be confident to explore the product further.
With any new I.T product there is going to be a learning curve and Power Apps is no exception.
I will show you how to create an app and connect to a data source. You will learn how to create screens, add and update data in your application.
I will explain the basics of creating an app that can save data using no code as well as with the kind of code to use for something more advanced.
You will also discover how to publish the app so that it will work on your mobile device
