If you’ve worked in the Microsoft Power Platform and Dynamics 365 world for any length of time, you know one universal truth: there’s always something new to learn — and just as often, something you wish you could remember how you solved six months ago.

Over the years, I’ve built, broken, and rebuilt countless solutions. I’ve discovered shortcuts buried deep in the documentation, stumbled on patterns that save hours of work, and learned hard lessons that don’t show up in a training module.
I’ve also benefited enormously from blog posts, forum threads, and shared code snippets that other people took the time to publish.
This site is my way of giving back to that same community.


What You Can Expect Here

Yodercoder.com is going to be a living notebook of the things I find most useful, interesting, or just plain cool in the Power Platform and Dynamics 365 ecosystem.

That means:

  • Step-by-step tutorials for tricky problems.
  • Code snippets that you can drop right into your own projects.
  • Architecture patterns that actually work in the real world.
  • Lessons learned from consulting projects — the successes and the “wish I’d done that differently” moments.
  • Occasional posts about emerging tools and integrations, including AI, that can make our work faster and smarter.

I’m not trying to be a news site or a comprehensive documentation source. Instead, think of this blog as a conversation with a fellow builder who’s happy to share what’s worked, what hasn’t, and why.


Why Bother?

Because the knowledge we don’t share ends up getting lost.
I’ve had countless times where I vaguely remember solving a problem before, but had to re-figure it out from scratch because I never wrote it down.
Publishing it here means:

  • I can find it again when I need it.
  • Someone else might save themselves a few hours of trial and error.
  • The solutions get better because people can add their own ideas in the comments or messages.

How Often Will I Post?

I’m aiming for a steady, realistic rhythm — about one solid post every couple of weeks. That gives me time to make each article genuinely useful, not just filler content.


Join the Conversation

If you’ve ever learned something from a blog post, a GitHub gist, or a quick forum reply, you already know how valuable this kind of sharing can be.
My hope is that Yodercoder.com becomes one more stop on your own problem-solving journey — and that you’ll share your own tips and ideas along the way.

Here’s to building, learning, and giving back.
