I think it is crazy to have to design multiple times, but all the graphical functions are based around fixed sizes so that would seem to mean a full redesign of the app would be required.
The team behind PS/PA has changed two or three times, so the newest folks started from ground zero. Given that they designed the whole PA environment around selecting a form factor, I think it is unlikely that this will change. Project Siena was based on "AppMagic" ( ) and the source code showed lots of references to this. We all begged for a responsive design and never got an answer. This was one of the big complaints about the predecessor to PA, Project Siena. Īnyway, I do hope that PowerApps would add Responsive Design as alternative to current fixed designs availabe. Instead of string X, Y, Width, Height attributes, you just drop your controls into HTML flow. As an example, look this. The responsive design would be possible to achieve in PowerApps relatively easily. As far as I know, there is nothing responsive in PowerApps, and I'm deeply worried how will this affect the usability of the applications. I would like to build Apps that work on any device with ease, but with current PowerApps design I'm stick with X, Y, Width, Height attributes of all the controls on the application. So with PowerApps I assumed that Responsive Design is the natural course, and I was wrong.Īlthought PowerApps is build Mobile First (and Cloud First), it is not taking Responsive Design as its design principleas I assumed. InfoPath has never has this, it has been awful at different devices. This means that you design your applications to work with variety of different devices, instead of targeting to a single device type. The general trend for years has been in responsive design. I come with a background of custom applications, SharePoint customizations, as well as some InfoPath Forms.
