Functions

[David_Krauss]

Guys,

PowerApps has got to support being able to write reusable functions like Modules and Classes in VBA within Excel, Word, Etc. As others would attest, declarative programming has it's place, but the formulas can get too big and impossible to write, debug, and maintain. To the PowerApps Development team: What are you waiting for? Developers are writing PowerApps apps, not business users. What is the problem with adding macros or user-defined functions. Please tell me, I'd really really like to know! By the way, I've been a Software Engineer for 40 years, so please don't respond with a lame excuse.

Agree completely. This 'codeless' development is nonsense, and a proper editor with reusable code should be in place.

from where all that was done is a pretty-print and comments
