Demo summaries

  • Taking your Power Apps mobile navigation UI to the next level! – UI design and the “thumb zone” when designing your mobile app are the difference between awesome and not used. Accessibility, user experience, and appealing UI matter in mobile navigation. Graphical layouts and bottom nav bar with few buttons/links to most important information are key. Look at sample Apartment Manager mobile app and various mobile device navigation options in Power Apps design environment.
  • Power to the Pages – Introduction to Power Pages! – a new product in the Power Platform lineup that allows you to create low code/no code friendly websites. Knowledge of HTML, JavaScript, CSS or Liquid not required, but optional! Learn the differences between Power Apps Portals and Power Pages, understanding that Power Pages (an abstraction layer) are built on Power Apps Portals! Follow along to create an enterprise grade preview site. Q&A and link to Preview.
