Power Apps Community Call Oct 21st: Charting components, custom apps in Teams and an enhanced SharePoint web part

Headshot of article author Charles Sterling

October brings us a very special community call as we are going to unveil /announce a new community offering from Canviz.

Canviz has been working on Power Apps charting components for much of 2019 and have graciously decided to give them to the community. This component will include nine of the most commonly requested charting visuals (i.e. Scatter, solid gauge, Radar, Candlestick, funnel, and Gannt!). This month’s community call will then proceed with a walk through of a Power Apps Expense Application built with Dataverse (so fully integrated with Microsoft Teams) by Reza Dorrani. The demos will conclude with April Dunnam and Hugo Bernier walking us through an ENHANCED Power Apps SharePoint web part built by our very own community start and MVP Hugo Bernier!
