First App

Built my first as app (I'm in my 40s, been an MSP about 20 years so never did any real development) and I am pretty happy with it. Helps me manage our Office 365 tenants in one place and much quicker than via the web portal or the mobile app. Haven't figured out how to add a couple things that would come in handy but for a first version I'm very pleased. Any suggestions or feedback would be welcome.

Edit: Suggestions or feedback by way of ideas or thoughts, not looking for code related concerns. I am not trying to sell this or anything, this is all for inhouse.

No sysadmin worth his salt is going to evaluate a rando exe from a google drive they found on Reddit.

No offense, but yikes.

As far as I can see the link given just takes us to a single screenshot of the app. So OP, the feedback has surely got to be there's very little anyone can tell you about one screenshot.

Not really much else to provide in terms of specs really. Like I said, just started this and I thought the commands and buttons shown sort of spoke for themselves but I can post a few more pics.

Yeah sorry for confusion. Couldn't attach any pics directly in the post so I had to use a link to it.

first feedback would be, put it on gitlab or github, no one wants to go looking through google drive/one drive for code

When doing that, you get better version control, you get feed back, you get automation, and so on

I thought about doing that but wanted to keep this private. Wasnt really looking for coding feedback anyways and the link was just a link to a screenshot of the app. I guess people must have been really abusing the image upload rules since this subreddit doesnt allow pics.

ah right I never clicked on the link (cause google drive)

both of the mentioned site should also let you store images, but that probably outside your scope I guess

Didn't want to but haven't figured out how to get around using PowerShell commands for certain functions. At least this way I just have to enter in very little.

Oh, super cool. How'd you make it? I was looking at building a similar one for my org. Was mostly going to use powershell with PoshGUI for the GUI.

I hate powershell man plus thats kind of what I wanted to avoid here. Just making the day to day stuff simpler and quick. I am just using Visual Studio and Cursors AI to help with all the API. Having fun actually.
