Microsoft Power Platform is a collection of low-code development tools that allows users to build custom business applications, automate workflows, and analyze data.[1][2] It also offers integration with GitHub, Microsoft Azure, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and Microsoft Teams, amongst other Microsoft and third-party applications.[3]

Microsoft Power Platform enables users to streamline processes, gain insights from their data, and build custom solutions to meet their business needs. It is designed to be accessible to users with varying levels of technical expertise, making it easier for organizations to create custom applications and automate workflows.

Microsoft developed the Power Fx low-code programming language for expressing logic across the Power Platform.[4][5]
