Microsoft has launched App Builder, a new AI agent that can be used to create apps using conversational language in just a few minutes. App Builder is based on Copilot and has a familiar workflow: describe what the app should do and it handles the rest automatically.
This is essentially vibe coding, or the process of letting generative AI produce code according to your prompts and instructions. It’s a useful practice for simple tasks and apps, as we’ve explored in our own experience of vibe coding apps with AI.
Learn more about how to get started with AI vibe coding using tools beyond just Copilot. For example, we recently explored how to vibe code AI scripts for customizing Windows 11.
Microsoft says that App Builder can be used to create apps that assign tasks, track milestones, and view campaign progress; to automate flows like sending daily updates and posting reminders in Teams channels; and to build AI agents that use SharePoint resources and Teams conversations as their basis of knowledge and training.
To get access to App Builder, you’ll need to be a Microsoft 365 Copilot customer in the Frontier program.
