Power Fx: open-source now available

I think if low code should take of this is the tool for it, the biggest "low code" tool is excel whit hundreds more excel users than programmers, if not I think probably we over estimate how much people care about develop apps

My non tech users are still catching up with Power Query.

I sort of gave up forwarding news related to low code from MS, as every week there's something changing or being deprecated.

Moreover, every time I tried to use anything related to the Power Platform (so I could teach to others) I ended up in a world of pain. Is anyone actually using Power Apps, etc... Successfully?

I'd say .NET is pretty meaningful.

I would say an overwhelming majority of corporate users don't care about creating their own apps or work flows or whatever else. They care about the PowerPoint or excel sheet they are actively working on for their next meeting. Where this stuff is helpful is in the business side analyst jobs, the folks who produce the data for the aforementioned persons PowerPoint. That's where most advanced excel is happening and a subset of those folks will go further and use some of these new tools. It's the folks who have built access databases to do some of their work. And future state it will probably end up like all those orphaned access databases that are all over corporate America running some small but important reporting for some business unit who could never get hours with IT to actually get a real production solution.
