Microsoft PowerApps and Flow to be generally available November 1

Microsoft will be making PowerApps and Flow, two of its power-user development tools, generally available as of November 1. PowerApps is for building web and mobile business applications without coding. Flow, Microsoft's version of IFTTT (If This Then That), is its business-process automation tool. The November 1 timing is not coincidental, as both PowerApps and Flow are set to be included with Dynamics 365, some pieces of which will be available for purchase starting November 1. The Common Data Model at the heart of Dynamics 365 initially was part of PowerApps. Microsoft has been testing PowerApps and Flow for a while now.
