Power Apps Code App

This repository contains a Power Apps Code App built with React, TypeScript, and Vite.

The project is intended for source control and team collaboration. Repository users can clone the codebase, restore dependencies locally, and run the application in their own development environment.

Project has been created after following Microsoft documentation: Quickstart:Create a code app from scratch.

• cost breakdown charts

Project has been created just for demonstration purposes and is not intended for production use. It may contain simplified logic and hardcoded values to illustrate key concepts.
