In this 1.5 hours long project, you will learn the fundamentals of developing Powerapps applications with Microsoft Copilot. You will set a developer environment, create and edit the data structure underlying the app, edit the interface and format values, share and test the app, using natural language and with no coding knowledge using Microsoft Copilot AI. This project is aimed at learners who are looking to get started with Powerapps and Copilot. Learning these skills will be helpful to develop prototype apps with very little or no coding knowledge. There are no hard prerequisites and any competent computer user should be able to complete the project successfully.
