Power Apps for Beginners: Designing your first App

7



This tutorial guides beginners through creating their first Power Apps application: a to-do list. Power Apps, part of the Microsoft Power Platform, is a low-code development environment that allows for quick and easy app design without traditional programming or database languages. The process begins by creating a new app from scratch, selecting the “start with data” option, and then building a new table. Users learn to define table columns, including a primary “title” column, and then add additional fields like “status” (with custom choices like “complete” and “not complete”), an auto-generated “date of entry,” a “due date,” “location,” “person,” “priority” (with high, medium, and low choices), and optional “tags.”

Once the data structure is established, the tutorial demonstrates how to integrate these fields into the app’s layout, customize the app’s theme, and save it. The app is then tested by adding new records, and users are shown how to refine the layout by deleting unnecessary automatically generated fields. Finally, the tutorial covers publishing the app, updating it to the latest version, and running it from the Power Apps home page, emphasizing its adaptability across various devices like computers, tablets, and mobile phones.
