Customized Add-Ons For Microsoft Teams Meetings & Live Events

An increasing amount of time is being spent on remote Meetings or Live events. What add on could we build to enhance the Meetings experience further

Microsoft Teams is a universal communication and collaboration platform that combines persistent workplace chat, video meetings, file storage (including collaboration of files), and application integration.

Microsoft Teams apps provide a variety of enhancements that help improve collaboration and engagement in remote work scenarios. Learn more about these apps – or explore the full collection of more than 450 Teams apps that enable flexibility and inclusiveness to help drive faster decision making.


Develop solutions based on

these three integrations;

    Power Apps is a suite of apps, services, connectors, and data platform that provides a rapid application development environment to build apps. Using Power Apps, you can quickly build custom business apps that connect to your business data stored either in the underlying data platform (Common Data Service) or in various online and on-premises data sources (SharePoint, Excel, Office 365, Dynamics 365, SQL Server, and so on).


    Apps built using Power Apps provide rich business logic and workflow capabilities to transform your manual business processes to digital, automated processes. Further, apps built using Power Apps have a responsive design and can run seamlessly in the browser or on mobile devices (phone or tablet). Power Apps “democratizes” the custom business app building experience by enabling users to build feature-rich, custom business apps without writing code.


    Power Apps also provides an extensible platform that lets pro developers programmatically interact with data and metadata, apply business logic, create custom connectors, and integrate with external data.

    App templates are production-ready apps for Microsoft Teams that are community-driven, open-source, and available on GitHub. Each contains detailed instructions for deployment and installation, providing a ready-to-use app that you can install and begin using immediately. The complete source code is available as well, so you can explore it in detail, or fork the code and alter it to meet your specific needs.

    Perfect for those with coding experience and professional developers, Microsoft Graph is the gateway to data and intelligence in Microsoft 365. It provides a unified programmability model that you can use to access the tremendous amount of data in Microsoft 365, Windows 10, and Enterprise Mobility + Security. 


    Use the wealth of data in Microsoft Graph to build apps for organizations and consumers that interact with millions of users. Microsoft Graph exposes REST APIs and client libraries to access data, allowing you to build experiences around the user's unique context to help them be more productive. 

    Whether you're an amateur coder, programming hobbyist, or an expert developer, the open track is for you! Enter as a soloist, part of a team, or with your company and compete for the grand prize!
