Yannick Reekmans
Microsoft 365 Solution Architect @ Qubix | Office Development MVP
Yannick (a Microsoft Office Development MVP) is born and raised in SharePoint, starting out his career almost 10 years ago when SharePoint 2010 was still new and shiny. The changing reality of the cloud made him expand his knowledge to the whole of Office 365, Azure and Power Platform. He is a Managing Partner and Cloud Solution Architect at Qubix, a Belgium-based consultancy firm, responsible for the technical underpinnings of products and solutions. Problem solving and development are his passion, still working day to day with code. He always asks the important questions: How does it work? What do you want to achieve? Do we really need development for this? Where's the coffee?
Current sessions
Learnings from a Microsoft 365 developer moving into the Power Platform
Yannick has been developing for 10 years, first on SharePoint and then on Microsoft 365. Most recently he started moving into Power Platform development, and he has been supporting a team of Dynamics 365 consultants moving into this cloud world. It provided some unique learnings and insights from both perspectives.
This session will cover patterns and practices for M365 development that can transfer to Power Platform, Microsoft Graph (and its wealth of information) & a lot of practical tidbits from real-world experience!
Teams tab SSO: because once authentication is done, everything else is easy 😉😇

Because once you have an access token, all data is within your reach!

Become a maker of makers & get rid of the lame parts of development by leveraging the Power Platform
You see the Power Platform take a high flight at your company and you are wondering what this means for you, a developer. Will it mean more work because you now need to control all those self-claimed makers? Are you reduced to cleaning up the crappy apps that those pesky clickity clickity people create?
No, not if we follow the #FusionDev approach. Join this session to discover all opportunities for a pro-dev in the Power Platform, to empower Makers in building awesome, performant and secure applications and enriching them with your code-first development pieces (in Azure Functions, API Management or the PowerApps Component Framework). You can focus on the challenging parts of development, and they can create apps to solve their immediate business needs and won't bother you with boring stuff. #WinnerWinnerChickenDinner
