I like cookbooks because sometimes they show tips and tricks. In this particular case, the author not only shows you how to do it but also best practices.In Chapter 5 they walk you through how to create a vertical navigation component in very few steps.The font awesome configuration is pretty cool. I didn't know that this feature could be so functional. Overall I am very happy with this book and I recommend it :)

I think there are books, authentic bibles of technical knowledge, that every professional should have and this is undoubtedly one of them. This book starts from the premise that the reader has already faced Power Apps before and through the perfect structuring of chapters and continuous exposure of details, it leads her/him on a journey of improvement and professionalization. I can certainly affirm that we are in front of the GREAT book of Power Apps.What I LIKE:I believe that anyone who purchases this book will see that his/her expectations are perfectly fulfilled.- Correct insight of the topic, I did not miss any content and also Eickhel has been able to delve not only into the areas where he is recognized with high experience, but also those where there is a lack of information in the community.- The reader does not have an overexposure of theory and documentation, this book is the perfect balance between practical and real cases.What I DON'T LIKEI sincerely think that this book is complete enough, I wish this would be the first book of a saga.- If I had to point out something, it would be the fact that the PCF chapter is too short for me, and responding to the title of the book, I have seen quite a lot more explanation around the flows than the development of components with the framework.What I would like to SEE MORE:The platform is constantly changing and I wouldn't want this book to become obsolete given its importance. I seek the author and publisher for revised and updated versions of the book in the next future.

Microsoft Power Apps Cookbook is not only a great learning resource for someone who is just getting started with the Power Platform but also a great reference resource for the seasoned professionals who are well versed with the platform.What I like about this book is that it covers a wide range of topics around the low code capabilities of the Power Platform. Specifically for Power Apps, it does justice to both canvas and model-driven apps. The fact that it describes how to create specific examples that solve specific use cases makes it even better. It's not just a book full of concepts, it even takes up specific use cases and gives step-by-step instructions on how to create complete end-to-end solutions for those use cases.One thing I don't like is the fact that the book includes a couple of topics that get into the pro-code side of the platform like chapter 11 about Power Apps Component Framework (PCF). Depending on the skillset of a reader, it could end up being a chapter that they don't reference at all. And that's the only thing I would change - have this book focus just on the low-code portion of the Power Platform and have another book that focuses just on the pro-side of things.

Not a bad book. Perhaps a bit complex for a beginner but, contains all the information you need.

This is the 4th book involving the Power Platform that I have reviewed from this publisher and it is unique in its approach. Rather than being a text book that might be used in a course, it offers, as the “cookbook” name implies, step-by-step walkthroughs of a wide range of relatively complicated but valuable use cases that you would find in the “lab” that goes along with the class. These build on fundamentals and provide lots of techniques that are highly reusable.First of all, I would not recommend this book as a beginners text, even though it really does start from the basics. After the first one or two examples, you are suddenly swimming in deep and advanced waters and to really exploit it properly you have have some experience using (and fighting with) the Power Platform as a whole. You should also have access to a wide variety of different data sources and services including the SharePoint/OneDrive, multiple Azure services (SQL, Key Vault, AD), the entire Power Platform (App, Automate, BI, Dataverse, OnPremise Data Gateway). It also helps to have admin rights, full network access and be familiar with GitHub (to get all of the support files).At first I struggled to get a handle on the book because just skimming it really doesn’t do it justice. I had to really sit down and step through the examples one by one and compare what it teaches with what I already know as a professional who has built production, end-to-end systems for real users. What I found when I did that was a very interesting intersection of things I already knew with a lot of new, nifty and useful techniques for things that I have thought about doing but haven’t gotten around to in my 4+ years using the Power Platform. Back then it was relatively immature and didn’t always work really well but now it is much more robust but still "weird" sometimes. The book, in many cases illuminates and explains what is going on for things which is the first time I have seen that. Many of these things I have been doing for months and months after discovering through lots of trial and error how to do them.Just like a regular cookbook, for me now, I am prioritizing which “recipes” I now want to cook and which ones will have to wait for later since there simply isn’t time in the day to cook everything in it.What it is missing is what I have found missing from each volume I have reviewed. This is all the “gotchas” and things that don’t exactly work as advertised that frustrate users who must spend hours and hours working through the platform “weirdness”. It could also benefit from a really good knowledge framework to hold all of the different "recipes", capabilities and knowledge required to master the Power Platform and build production quality tools for real users. My only other complaint is that I also find the visual format of the book a bit pedestrian and monotonous. This unfortunately “hides” some of the real value in the volume. The book would have benefited from a bit more presentation creativity.All in all, I would recommend this volume for moderate and above Power Platform users.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.
