Will PowerApps ever be reliable?
I'm building a forecasting tool and always have issues with reliability such as but not limited to. data coming through properly, components displaying/rendering for every user and more in spite of tuning for performance and optimization.
I also use VS Code to do more granular dev and that is such as wonderful tool for developers.
But, PowerApps never seems to be reliable and yet is sold as a good minimal code app builder.
Just wondering if this is just me thinking this?
HI,
As for reliability this is all about design and the understanding of the original developers thought process.
Making a system like this totally reliable is very hard because of different use cases and designs form the end users. As an example with languages issues you have a system that is designed in English, then you are calling fields at the users level form SharePoint in another language so part of your formulas will call fields in English and other parts will call in the language the fields are in SharePoint.
As for examples of formulas I do as much calculation in SharePoint and not in the PowerApps development systems, I build URLS and do extensive math in SharePoint.
