Hello,
Is it possible to develop and deploy custom control using visual studio for powerapps ? or it can be only done through web designer as a component ?
Best Regards,
Custom component development using PowerApps component framework is professional dev scenario and you can use editor of your choice to to work on TypeScript code for the components. CLI tooling facilitates the project creation and managing/otimizing various develeloper workflows. Once the component is created it can be used by any maket/customizer. Currently we have released public preview for Model-apps. You might be confusing this with canvas components which can be used by any maker in the app. We are in process of adding the PowerApps component framework support for canvas apps too so the pro developers can extend what is available already. Same set of the components will be functional on both app types.
I touched this topic in onboarding call - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNDbZcgVMi0 ( skip to 4:30)
VS code is the recommended editor currently and CLI team is evaluating visual studio support.
You can find more details on the tooling here.
