PowerApps in Visual Studio Code

PowerApps in Visual Studio Code

I love to create Canvas PowerApps! It’s easy and fast when you stay on basic functionality. On the other side, the effort increases when a PowerApp is growing up.

PowerUp your PowApps with PCF Components

Early this year I discovered an announcement about PCF components for the Power Platform. What does this mean?

Xmas Blog Posts

Xmas Blog Posts

Why not to include the great blog posts from “Counting down to the holidays with daily blogs” from Microsoft into Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central? This was the question and in this repository you find an answer. In my example I want to focus on usage of some of the new datatypes: List Dictionary In CAL you you have imported the ‘BAD’ .NET Framework to use these datatypes. In Microsoft AL they are included – and this is good! Disclaimer This example is provided “AS…
