Magnus Gether Sørensen Stop crossing your fingers and hoping AI-generated code works. In this session, we'll move beyond "vibe coding" and into the world of agentic engineering, where AI doesn't just write code that works - it writes code you'd be proud to ship to production. Since August 2025, I've been successfully deploying AI-written code to real customer environments. The secret? An open-source framework that transforms AI from a coding assistant into a professional developer who writes safe, maintainable, and thoroughly tested Dataverse and Azure code. What You'll Learn: * Live demonstration of AI writing production-quality Dataverse plugins, custom APIs, and business logic that looks exactly like senior developer code. * Deep dive into the framework architecture that enforces coding standards, security patterns, and comprehensive test coverage. * How agentic engineering differs from typical AI coding: focusing on long-term maintainability, not just immediate functionality. * Practical strategies to implement this approach in your organization—either by adopting my open-source framework or building your own. Why This Matters: While everyone's talking about AI and Copilot, we're actually shipping AI-written code to production. This isn't about prompting tricks or hoping for the best - it's about systematic engineering practices that make AI a reliable member of your development team. The agent even writes more unit tests than most developers (myself included) because it never gets lazy. Key Takeaways: * Understanding the shift from ad-hoc AI assistance to systematic agentic engineering. * Concrete patterns for ensuring AI-generated code meets enterprise standards. * Access to the open-source framework and implementation guidance. * Real-world examples from months of production deployments. Join me to discover how professional Dataverse development with AI isn't just possible - it's already happening, and you can start implementing it tomorrow.

Nick Doelman Power Platform makers and developers building Power Pages websites have access to a variety of tools to quickly create and extend powerful, data-driven, themed, and secure websites. While Power Pages has out-of-the-box multilingual capabilities, setting up and configuring a multilingual website and translating content can be both tedious and time consuming. It is both expected and in some cases legally required for organizations operating internationally to provide websites and portals in their stakeholder's language of choice. This session is your ultimate guide to walk through the process of configuring a multilingual website as well as best practices and content strategies to more efficiently create, translate, and manage multilingual static and dynamic content. Attendees will learn how to: - Use effective context engineering when using AI and Copilot for Power Pages translation projects. - Configure Dataverse and Power Pages to be enabled for multiple languages. - How the metadata structure works to store multilingual webpages and content. - How Dataverse model-driven forms and lists can be configured for multilingual sites. - Best practices for managing and translating data and static content. - Handle complex language requirements (e.g., right-to-left languages, regional variants) Don't start your next international Power Pages project without attending this session!

Diana Birkelbach "Pro coder was yesterday" or "We don't need developer anymore". In the AI times, generative coding is taking over, and you probably heard this kind of thesis somewhere. Do you think that too? It's true that the developer role shifts, and developing Power Apps is not an exception. But let me show you, why a developer can make a difference, even if the code is generated. We'll consider the UI of the Power Apps: from PCFs to Generative Pages and Code Apps. In each of them we can generate code until a certain level. The starting point is different. And in each of them we'll probably need a developer at one point. PCF: where do we need them? And how can we use generative features? Generative Pages: we'll cover the basics and see a lot of examples and go into advanced usage: from Model-Driven Apps Theming, using Fluent UI 9, how to deal with needed controls, solving issues and modify the code. Code Apps are awesome too, and we have a huge start up booster: GitHub Spark. And then GitHub Copilot speeds up everything. Let's explore them together! Your takeaway: - Generative Pages are a huge booster, democratizing the app development, but for some parts a pro coder will make a difference - Generative Coding with Code Apps & GitHub Spark and PCF with GitHub Copilot will help the developer to be much more productive - Generative code tools are there to improve the work of developers
