You’ve been put in charge of party planning for your office, and you need an app that lets you create events. No problem!

In this hands-on tutorial, I’ll show you from beginning to end how to build out a model-driven app to handle your requirements. We’ll set up a new solution, build out a data model in Dataverse (tables and columns), customize forms, and then pull it all together in a new model-driven app.
