Скачать или смотреть Code Apps just killed Canvas Apps (Power Apps has changed forever)

We’re diving into why Code Apps are officially replacing Canvas Apps for Power Platform development in 2026, using JavaScript and AI coding agents to build high-performance React (or Vue.js, SvelteKit, etc.) applications.

We spent years building and loving Canvas Apps, but we've all hit those "Canvas walls" where performance lags and delegation warnings feel like a never-ending battle. We constantly found ourselves wishing for real developer tools, proper source control, and the ability to use CSS or mature charting libraries. That’s why we made the switch to Code Apps. It’s not just about writing code; it’s about removing the abstraction layers that slow us down and finally having the freedom to build without limitations.

The democratisation of software means you now have AI coding agents at your fingertips to help you generate professional-grade React apps that run natively on the Power Platform runtime. You still get the enterprise-grade security, managed environments, and 1,500+ connectors you love, but with the added speed of JavaScript and Git-based workflows. We even built a full timesheet app in our series to prove that this modern approach is faster and more powerful than any traditional Studio experience.

If you are building production apps in Canvas today, you are likely accumulating technical debt. We want to help you upskill for this next step because low code as we knew it is dead.
