The Billion-App Gap: Your Opportunity for Growth

Microsoft's General Manager, Nikesh Parekh (General Manager, Enterprise Apps on Power Platform), recently highlighted a staggering prediction:

"In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, enterprise organizations are grappling with an ever-expanding application backlog, with over 1 billion apps expected to be built by 2028. However, there are only four million developers in the United States."

This isn't a crisis; it's your golden opportunity.

The Power Platform is your ticket to bridging this "billion-app gap." It's the great equalizer, empowering anyone – regardless of technical background – to become a creator, an innovator, a problem-solver.

2: Unlock the Full Potential of Power Apps with Copilot

This workshop was taught by Paul Stork MVP

Discover how to revolutionize your Power Apps development process using Copilot, directly from Microsoft MVP Paul Stork!

In this must-see workshop, Paul Stork, a seasoned Microsoft MVP, takes you deep into the capabilities of Copilot within Power Apps. Whether you’re aiming to enhance your productivity, streamline complex processes, or unleash powerful app development strategies, this recording is your gateway to mastery.

You will learn:

  • Efficient Integration Techniques: How to seamlessly integrate Copilot into your Power Apps projects for enhanced data management and app functionality.

3: Building Scalable, Responsive, and Robust Power Apps for Modern Business

This workshop was taught by Paul Stork MVP.

Unlock the power of cutting-edge app development with our Masterclass, designed to transform your Power Apps skills in just 5 hours. Whether you're looking to impress end-users with fast, responsive apps or efficiently manage massive data sets, this session ensures you walk away with actionable insights.

You will learn:

  • Working with Dates and Times: Dates and times are usually tiresome to deal with when building an app. Of course, end-users want to work with local times, but in many cases, they have to stored as UTC dates and times. We'll examine how to convert between timezones, adjust daylight savings time, and manage date-only values that include a time.
  • Leverage Flows to Process Data: Power Apps is a declarative language, & Power Automate is procedural, so there are times when it is better to process data using a Power Automate flow than doing it in Power Apps. This part of the Masterclass will examine several real-world cases where it's easier and more effective to use Power Automate than attempting it in Power Apps.
  • Build Offline Power Apps: Many businesses have staff who take flights, operate "on the road", or work in poor internet connection areas. To keep your "offline" end-users happy, you must plan for offline scenarios from day 1. Unfortunately, retrofitting "offline" capabilities (into your App) is usually expensive and time-consuming, so it's always best to design with it in mind. We will explore how to build apps that can still work offline and re-sync when connected back to the Internet.

  • Managing Large Data Sources: Transferring large quantities of data between a data source and an app is inefficient and hurts performance. Power Apps supports delegation to control how much data is transferred between the app and the data source. We’ll share several workarounds that let you work with massive data sets without many delegation warnings.
  • Build Responsive Power Apps: If your Power App needs to work on multiple screen sizes such as Desktop, Tablet and Mobile, the last thing you want to do is create 3 Apps or have it look horrid on 2 of the 3. During this part of the Masterclass, we will demonstrate several techniques that make creating 1 Responsive App for many screen sizes easy.
  • Troubleshooting Performance: Our newly published Power App would be bug-free and perform at sub-second speeds in an ideal world. However, bugs generally can't be avoided, and building a fast app is possible, but it needs to be designed and built with that goal in mind. So we'll explore the tools and techniques you can use to troubleshoot issues and improve performance in your Power Apps.

4: How To Build A Time Tracking System With The Power Platform
