From a technical standpoint we will be building a normal Canvas App without Premium features. So there is no requirement for paid licenses.
To follow this tutorial you should have build a few Canvas Apps and should be familiar with the main building blocks like galleries, buttons, etc.
In the first coding exercise, we will be building a menu component and in the second exercise, we will use containers to structure a whole screen.
The finished version will look something like this:
While you should try to build everything on your own, this repository will assist you in building the app, when you are stuck. Furthermore there are side quests you can follow if you already finished the main tasks. The side quests are not discussed on this page, but the solution can be found in the reference app.
Download the reference msapp-file in the Download-folder.
To open it in an Environemnt of your choice select Create -> Dataverse -> Browse and select the downloaded file.
Make sure to save the app once it has loaded
