Power Platform Tips and Tricks (2) Plan your app

 Power Platform Tips and Tricks (2) - Plan your app.

How to start developing an app from a scratch? 

Microsoft has created a nice plan to develop your Power App. 

The basics of making an app are as follows:

1. Plan: Identify the who, what, when, and why.

2. Design: Model the data (decide how the data you need and create will be organized, accessed, and stored) and sketch out the app screens.

3. Make: Create the app.

4. Test: Have users try the app.

5. Deploy and refine: Get your app into the hands of users, get feedback, and decide what to change or add.

1. Plan

Planning is the most important part of the app-making process. When planning, you should consider the following:

• What problem will the app solve?

• Who will use this app?

• What goals and objectives will it meet for users?

Knowing the answers helps you stay on track when you design the app. It's easy to fall into the trap of making the app as the objective, rather than solving the issue.

In this section, you'll learn about:

• Identifying the business problem to solve (the use case)

• Deeply understanding the business process

• Optimizing the business process with your solution

• Deciding whether it's worthwhile to automate the process

• Creating a project plan
