Amazing. Really impressed with the way you explained how we can leverage technology to work smartly in creating tables and a rapid app development rather than spending way too much of manual time. Thanks for the content.

WOW, this is amazing. At first I thought you were still leaving the excel data as the source data while PowerApps builds the screens etc… this is very good start but we would need Dataverse licences for it. Keep up the good work.
