In this episode of Code Deploy Go Live, hosts Julie Turner and Andrew Connell discuss Microsoft 365 Copilot extensibility options, Power Platform environments, and interview Wes Preston, a Microsoft MVP since 2009 who works primarily in the productivity space with SharePoint, lists, and Power Platform.
The discussion centered on the balance between Power Platform (low-code/no-code) and Pro Dev (professional development) approaches for Microsoft 365 extensibility, with a focus on when each approach is appropriate and how organizations should make these decisions, as well as the newly introduced Power Apps Code Apps (jokingly nicknamed "alPACAs").
