Welcome to Power Platform Weekly!

It is time for Microsoft Build! Take part of exciting announcements and connect with Microsoft and community members from around the world. Don't miss your guide to Power Platform at Microsoft Build.

Last week the Power Cat Creator Kit was introduced as a collection of code and canvas components, templates and utilities to help makers build Fluent UI in Power Apps canvas apps and custom pages. 

GA of the Power Apps modern app designer was announced too and other news were that April brought us 14 new and 15 updated certified connectors. The one with an eye for details will notice that it says 700+ connectors (!) in the link.

Is it possible to restore a deleted flow? Yes it is! Earlier presented by Taiki Y and this week explained under the articles section.

Thanks for reading and enjoy #MSBuild and all other adventures this week will bring!
