How to build your first app using Power Apps | Automatically with Copilot or from scratch

Create low code Power Apps to automate everyday tasks. AI-driven Copilot capabilities make it easy to interact with your app and its data using natural language. Or simply build an app from scratch. We’ll demo how to build an inventory app for mechanical parts, that anyone can use on the job, to track and enter new parts.

If you’re new to Power Apps, it’s a part of Microsoft’s Power Platform for building low code apps and processes. Apps can originate from a task or process you’d like to make easier – like a streamlined approval process, or a way to capture and track information on the go. Run them in the browser or on your favorite mobile platform.

Emma Cooper, Principal PM Manager for Power Apps, shares key steps to build your first app in under ten minutes.
