Greg Lindhorst introduces Power Fx, Microsoft’s open-source, Excel-like low-code language that extends the spreadsheet model to let both novice makers and pro developers author apps, automation, and server triggers; embeddable via C# SDK and a React formula bar, it supports declarative and imperative logic, strongly-typed checks, connectors (including Dataverse and REST), safe server execution, and tooling for integration and IntelliSense—enabling democratized, maintainable business logic authoring across platforms.

Lewis Baybutt argues that the integration of generative AI and Copilot with Microsoft’s Power Platform is transforming software development from a constrained, expert-driven practice into a broad, democratized activity. He traces the shift from traditional coding to low-code and RAD, enabled by AI-assisted design, automated flows, and data-driven apps, while highlighting the role of Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI, and related tools in empowering citizen developers and professionals alike. The piece also stresses governance, lifecycle management, and responsible AI as essential guardrails in this nascent AI-enabled era.
