"Pro coder was yesterday" or "We don't need developer anymore". In the AI times, generative coding is taking over, and you probably heard this kind of thesis somewhere. Do you think that too?
It's true that the developer role shifts, and developing Power Apps is not an exception. But let me show you, why a developer can make a difference, even if the code is generated.

We'll consider the UI of the Power Apps: from PCFs to Generative Pages and Code Apps. In each of them we can generate code until a certain level. The starting point is different. And in each of them we'll probably need a developer at one point.

PCF: where do we need them? And how can we use generative features?
Generative Pages: we'll cover the basics and see a lot of examples and go into advanced usage: from Model-Driven Apps Theming, using Fluent UI 9, how to deal with needed controls, solving issues and modify the code.
Code Apps are awesome too, and we have a huge start up booster: GitHub Spark. And then GitHub Copilot speeds up everything.

Let's explore them together!

Your takeaway:
- Generative Pages are a huge booster, democratizing the app development, but for some parts a pro coder will make a difference
- Generative Coding with Code Apps & GitHub Spark and PCF with GitHub Copilot will help the developer to be much more productive
- Generative code tools are there to improve the work of developers
