Hands-on workshop for Power Platform developers
The Power Platform for Developers Workshop is designed for software developers and technical teams who want practical experience extending the Microsoft Power Platform. This workshop focuses on hands-on activities covering developer tooling, custom connectors, integration patterns and application lifecycle management. Participants will leave with a better understanding of how to build and manage solutions that integrate Power Apps, Power Automate and Dataverse within their existing environments.
During this workshop we walk through real-world development scenarios and best practices for extending Power Platform solutions. Sessions include working with solution components, application lifecycle management and governance guidance to support maintainable and scalable developer practices. Attendees receive example artefacts and documentation to support further learning and adoption in their own projects.
Talk through your requirements and leave with a clear next-step plan.
