Do I need to be a Programmer to learn PowerApps? - with MVP Hardit Bhatia
Today I speak with Hardit Bhatia from Hitachi Solutions. Hardit is a Microsoft Business Applications MVP who is addicted 100% to Low Coding and Power Apps! He is also serving as a Solution Architect with Hitachi Solutions.
Show Notes:-
1. Well Microsoft is already claiming MS PowerApps is a no-code platform, then do we really need this discussion in the first place?
2.Everything is available on Microsoft documentation; so, anybody should be able to study them and learn formulas and expressions. Will that be a challenge for a Non-programmer to learn? Well, Hardit counters this yet again!

4.Let's do a comparison between a business analyst with 5 years of experience and a programmer with 1-year of experience.
