Microsoft is making it easier to build websites with Power Pages through support for ready-made single-page application (SPA) templates. This update gives developers a faster starting point for creating websites, reducing the need to build every page and component from scratch.
Here's what you need to know:
Discover What’s New in Power Pages
The Power Pages plugin for GitHub Copilot CLI and Claude Code now supports ready-made SPA templates that match your project requirements. With /create-site, you can preview a recommended template, provision your site with Dataverse solutions and sample data, and customise it to your needs.
Build Faster With Ready-Made Templates
Templates help reduce development time and AI credit costs compared with building a complete site from scratch. They also provide WCAG 2.2 compliance, responsive layouts, recommended Power Pages development patterns, and code that is free of known vulnerabilities at release.
Choose a Template for Your Business Needs
Choose from two React-based templates: the 311 Citizen Services Portal for managing citizen requests and city services, or the Supplier Invoice Portal for supplier onboarding, purchase orders, and invoice tracking. Each template includes site code, a Dataverse solution, and sample data to provide an end-to-end starting point, with more templates coming soon.
From Site Idea to Live Website
Describe the site you want, preview the recommended template, and confirm your choice before provisioning begins. The plugin then imports the Dataverse solution, uploads the site, applies sample data, activates the site, and opens it in your browser so you can start customising.
Start Building Your Power Pages Site
Install or update the Power Pages plugin and Power Platform CLI using the installer script to get the latest tools and updates. Then, run /create-site, describe your requirements, and follow the guided process to build your site from a template.
