Does anyone have any tips how to document all the settings and curlies in a complex PowerApp, so that the next person along does not have to figure everything out by trial and error? InfoPath had a horrible rule inspector, but PowerApps does not seem to have anything. Is that true?
So, what do people do to document their powerful apps?

Manually. PowerApps was designed as an end user tool, and lacks standard IT functions like proper source control, good versioning, and support for any sort of documentation. So, manually.
By manually, I mean it would be great for someone to keep up a doc that lists the logic and reasoning of how the form works. For example, a list of all variables, and a list of every component that changes the value of a variable and why. It goes without saying that this sort of thing sounds ok, but many people have difficulty keeping the docs up to date.
