Session

Bring the Vision to Life: How do we build real apps based on the mockups made by a designer?

You've got the mockups in hand - a beautifully designed vision for your app. But how do you take these static designs and turn them into a fully functioning Power App that feels just as good as it looks?

In this session, I’ll share the lessons I’ve learned and techniques I use to bridge that gap and make sure the finished app isn’t just what was envisioned but is also user-friendly and adaptable.

Here’s what we’ll cover together:
- Turning Ideas into Reality: I’ll walk you through how I approach functional design documents to translate them into Power App components that both users and stakeholders can appreciate.
- Making Layout Choices: Fixed or flexible? I’ll share insights on how I decide where to use fixed-width layouts and where dynamic ones make more sense, based on the end-user’s device and needs.
- Organizing Data: I’ll go over how I plan and set up data sources to keep everything aligned with the functional design while keeping performance in mind.
- Designing for Users, Not Just for Design’s Sake: We’ll talk about balancing the aesthetic and practical sides of a design - how to use Power Apps to bring visuals to life and create an intuitive experience.
- Building in Functionality: From automations to workflows, I’ll show you how I build out the logic that makes an app come alive, keeping the design’s goals front and center.
- Testing and Perfecting: I’ll share my favorite testing methods to make sure the app not only matches the design but works reliably in real-world situations.

This session is designed to give you practical insights and techniques you can apply immediately in your own projects. Let’s make your functional designs work as real, powerful apps!
