INTRODUCTION
I was asked by Microsoft to write a blog post on their Humans of IT series - https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/humans-of-it-blog/guest-blog-6-ways-to-maintain-and-foster-yo...
At the end of this post, I decided that I needed to go further than write about it, I needed to do something. This was my first foray into PowerApps and i had a vision of what it needed to do and I had the benefit of being on both sides of the coin. Suffering from anxiety for the last 4 years or so and also having the ability to get up and running with Power Automate and PowerApps left me in a great position to be able to build this and share it for others.
Thanks for reading.
