Power Apps: Today Function
Returns today's date with time set to midnight. Volatile.
The Microsoft Power Platform is a family of low-code tools that let you build apps, automate work, and create websites without writing everything from scratch, and this hub ties my Power Platform coverage together. If you are new here, think of this page as the front door, with each sub-area going deep on its own part of the platform. My biggest section by far is Power Automate, where I share hundreds of tutorials, reference pages, and answers about building cloud flows, wiring up connectors, and automating the repetitive tasks that eat your day. I also cover Power Pages, the tool for building secure, data-driven websites on top of Dataverse, so you can turn your business data into a real web experience. Across these areas my goal stays the same, to give you practical, hands-on guidance that gets you to a working result instead of leaving you lost in the documentation. Whether you want to automate an approval, connect Microsoft 365 services, or stand up a portal, start with the sub-area that matches your goal and follow the guides from there.
