Model Driven forms?

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Tal22 259
Do model driven forms work or is the platform still being developed by Microsoft. I ask this because the tool sets in the platform seem to constantly change making it difficult to understand the logic, if there is any, or to follow tutorials. I  understand that Power Apps requires Power FX coding knowledge. I don't see how to use Power FX in Model Driven forms, which I surmise requires a different coding language. Can someone please direct me to the coding required?

    Model driven forms still work and are still supported. They are a core component of model driven apps.
     
    The nature of a model driven app is that it's model/data driven, and not as customisable as a canvas app.
     
    Model driven forms cannot be customised with Power FX. For client side customisation, the language you would use is JavaScript.
     
    There's a tutorial on the Microsoft Learn site that walks through this process.
