• Photo Uploads: Capability to upload photos directly from the site.

1. Define Requirements: List all specific requirements and features for each part of the app.
2. Sketch Layouts: Create basic wireframes or layouts for how each part of the app will look and function.
3. Build and Test: Use Power Apps to build each part of the application, testing frequently to ensure functionality and usability.
