PCF – Power Apps Component Framework is a platform that empowers developers and app makers to create custom code components for Model-driven & Canvas Apps to enhance user interface based on specific data on forms, views, and dashboard.
Sometimes, as app makers, we might reach certain limitations when it comes to building consistent, eye-catching but functional user experiences. The out-of-the-box controls within Power Apps might not fit all of our needs or maybe, we just want to stretch Power Apps' capabilities a little further. With PCF, you can build code components which are essentially visual controls that help you create a more customised user interface.
Unlike HTML web resources, code components are rendered as part of the same context and loaded at the same time as any other components, providing a seamless experience for the user.
You can create code components that can be used across the full breadth of Power Apps capabilities, and reuse these components many times across different tables and forms.
Developers can bundle all the HTML, CSS, and TypeScript files into a single solution package file and move across environments, and also make it available via AppSource.
Nebulaa helps individuals or organizations in conceptualising their idea and converting it into the custom control which can be made available in the market as PCF control. We also help organizations in publishing their apps on Microsoft AppSource (Marketplace for all business apps on Microsoft cloud platform).
Easy Integration
Enhance User Experience
Reusability Across Environments
Optimized Performance
Design Responsiveness
Overall, the PCF Controller provides a powerful framework for creating custom components in PowerApps, enabling developers to extend the functionality of the platform and create unique user experiences for their applications.
The Microsoft PowerApps platform includes the PowerApps Component Framework (PCF) Controller, which enables developers to construct unique components for use inside PowerApps. A set of interfaces and methods are provided by the PCF Controller so that the component can communicate with the PowerApps platform.
Unlock Custom User Experiences with PCF
The Power Apps Component Framework (PCF) allows businesses to break free from standard out-of-the-box controls and build highly customized, interactive user interfaces within Microsoft Power Apps and Dynamics 365. At Nebulaa IT Solutions, our developers utilize PCF to create seamless, visually intuitive components that replace traditional forms and views, driving higher user adoption and data accuracy.
Key Benefits of PCF Development:
Enhanced User Experience: Replace clunky data entry fields with visual sliders, interactive maps, or custom drag-and-drop grids.
Reusability: Once a PCF control is built, it can be seamlessly reused across multiple apps and dashboards, saving development time.
Client-Side Performance: PCF controls run directly in the browser, providing a lightning-fast, responsive experience for your team.
Seamless Integration: Fully supported by the Microsoft ecosystem, ensuring your custom controls interact perfectly with the Dataverse and your existing business logic.

PCF controls are custom-built, code-driven components that replace standard out-of-the-box fields in Dynamics 365 and Power Apps. They allow developers to create highly visual, interactive elements like dials, sliders, or rich-text editors to drastically improve the user experience.
By replacing clunky, traditional data entry forms with intuitive, visual interfaces, employees can navigate systems faster and make fewer data-entry errors, leading to higher overall satisfaction and adoption rates.
Yes. One of the greatest advantages of the Power Apps Component Framework is its reusability. A custom control built by our developers can be deployed seamlessly across both model-driven apps and canvas apps.
